Donald Nestor

Donald Patrick Nestor (6 October 1938 – 10 January 2003) was a British suffragan bishop in Lesotho, a diocese in the Anglican Church of Southern Africa from 1979.

[1] In 1992 he returned to England to serve as an Assistant Bishop of Blackburn and later in the Diocese of Durham.

Lesotho is a very mountainous country and many of the mission stations and settlements he served were accessible only on horseback, causing him to travel great distances in that manner.

Nestor became fluent in Sesotho and offered encouragement and hope to his parishioners through his teaching.

He served as the diocesan ecumenical officer, using his experience of working with African churches to good effect.
