John Sentamu announced that the new Bishop of Hull will be Reverend
Canon Alison White, BBC reported.
"This is a joyous day. I am delighted to be welcoming Alison as the next Bishop of Hull," Archbishop Sentamu said.
Reverend White is currently priest-in-charge of Riding Mill in the Diocese of Newcastle.
