DescriptionLaying on of hands during ordination of David Salmon.jpg
English: Episcopal clergy, led by Bishop William Gordon, lay hands on David Salmon during his ordination into the priesthood in Fort Yukon, Alaska on October 6, 1962. Salmon was the first Alaska Native to be ordained into the priesthood. In the history of the Episcopal Church in Alaska, six Native men had been ordained deacons up to that point. It had long been a priority of the Church to see indigenous priests, dating back to the missionary work of Hudson Stuck. Bishop Gordon had especially made it a point to see this occur during his time in office.
