Pastor Bev's Bishop Consecration

SERVICE OF CONSECRATION RESCHEDULED! 

FOR JUNE 2023 IN BALTIMORE, MARYLAND

PLEASE STAY TUNED FOR MORE INFO!

NOTE: The date, time and place was moved because of a serious condition our International Presiding Bishop (Chief Consecrator) Bishop Henry A. Tindal, Sr.  was suddenly struck with and is now recovering well, we thank you for your prayers.

 Were you aware that never, in the history of Fond du Lac, Wisconsin has there been a female bishop (that we can find) and specifically not an African-American Woman Bishop? Yet, with your support, when consecrated as Bishop, Pastor Beverly Haywood will become the first and only African-American Female Bishop in Fond du Lac, WI. 

A consecration is a sacred ceremony where God sets aside a person, before his people, to complete his work at a particular level of ministry. In this case, Pastor Beverly A. DeShazer-Haywood elevated to the Episcopacy, as a Bishop by the UFCCM (United Fellowship of Christian Churches and Ministries-World-Wide) right here in the city of Fond du Lac, WI.  We  now Lovingly call: Lady-Bishop or Bishop Bev "Respectively."   

Given the significance of all of this, Bread of Life Cathedral of Hope will honor congregants, family and friends before God by hosting a celebratory banquet (The Journey) here in Fond du Lac Wisconsin.  This will happen on Friday October 21st 7:00 PM (CST) at the Radisson Conference Center. before the official episcopal consecration is held in Baltimore during the annual UFCCM Fellowship Conference. and to do so, we ask for your support. 

Beverly Haywood has been a pastor for over 20 years of ministry in the City of Fond du Lac. She has been profiled in several FDL Reporter articles inclusive of one titled “A Measure of Success” where her work as a pastor here in FDL was of focus and praised. At the humble behest of her husband (Bishop H.D. Haywood, Sr.) Pastor Bev (as she is lovingly called for the past 30+ years) will be taking on her maiden name "DeShazer" as her official Episcopal Title and Name Designation (Bishop Beverly A. DeShazer-Haywood / Bishop DeShazer) in honor of the and legacy of her father the Late  Rev. Dr. J.R. DeShazer, and to the memory of her Uncle; Pastor James DeShazer and her Brother; Elder Ray DeShazer. 

You can help make this possible by becoming a supporter of the Episcopal Consecration Fund.  There are quite a bit of expenses accrued to make both the Banquet in Fond du Lac possible and the items needed as we travel to Baltimore for the Consecration.  So we welcome your financial and (in-kind) gifts towards this joyous occasion as we prepare faithfully.
