Rev. Earl Storey has been appointed as the new editor of the Church of Ireland Gazette. He replaces long-serving editor Canon Ian Ellis who is stepping down after 16 years in the role.
Rev. Storey, who was ordained for the Church of Ireland in 1982, will take up the new role on June 1. He is married to Bishop Pat Storey of Meath and Kildare – the first female bishop appointed in the Church of Ireland. He has served as rector in parishes in the North as well as the republic. He brings to the role more than 30 years’ experience in publishing, communications and public relations.
The Chairman of Church of Ireland Press Ltd, Canon John R Auchmuty said that Rev. Storey brings “many personal, professional, and spiritual gifts along with immense experience of our Church in both jurisdictions”.
