Biography

From 1994 to 2017, Lago was pastor of Iglesia Providencia in Santiago. [1] In 2017, he was installed as rector of St. James' Church in Punta Arenas [2] and was missionary archdeacon in the south. [3]

As the Diocese of Chile sought recognition as an autonomous Anglican Communion province, in 2018 Lago was elected as the future diocesan bishop of Concepción (later called the Diocese of the South of Chile). He was consecrated to the episcopacy at St. Paul's Cathedral, Valparaíso, alongside Samuel Morrison, on July 15, 2018, and became diocesan bishop upon the formation of the diocese that year. [4] [5] [6]

On 12 January 2025, Lago succeeded Tito Zavala as the second archbishop of the Anglican Church of Chile. [7] [8]

Personal life

Lago is the son-in-law of the last English-born bishop of Chile, Colin Bazley. [9]
