Maria Jepsen

Maria Jepsen Maria Jepsen (born 19 January 1945, in Bad Segeberg) is the former bishop of Hamburg in the North Elbian Evangelical Lutheran Church. On 4 April 1992 the synod of the Hamburg Ambit elected her bishop, the first Lutheran woman to be a bishop worldwide, and since then she has been re-elected for a second ten-year period.

On 16 July 2010 she resigned due to allegations that she did not act on information about an abuse case in her ambit of the church in 1999. Provided by Wikipedia
