What are bishops?

Bishops are people who help decide important things in churches.

Imagine you're in a big school, and there's a group of teachers who meet to talk about rules and how the school should run, that’s kind of like what bishops do, but for churches. They help lead and guide the church, just like your teacher helps guide your class.

In some churches, bishops are chosen by other important people in the church, and they have special jobs to do. Sometimes they travel around to visit different parts of the church, it's like being a principal who visits all the classes in the school!

Bishops can also help make new rules or change old ones. They're kind of like team captains who work together with other leaders to keep things running smoothly.

Churches are big, and they have many people, bishops help organize everyone so that everything stays on track. It's like how a team needs someone to make sure the game runs well, even when there are lots of players!
