Pray

Pray for the convention’s work supporting diocesan mission and ministry. Suggested prayers are in the Book of Common Prayer on pages 817-18.

Delegates

• Lay delegates elected by their congregation.
• Clergy delegates are ordained persons Canonically Resident (officially under the bishop’s canonical authority).

Pre-Convention  Meetings

Convention preparation includes attending a deanery level pre-convention meeting. Held across the diocese and online to minimize travel time and expense, they cover protocol, submitted resolutions, proposed diocesan budget, and invite you to ask questions.

The Diocesan Convention is where we gather to worship, conduct diocesan business and learn about ministries.  The primary purpose of the convention is to elect members of diocesan committees who manage diocesan functions. The convention may also provide direction for those serving on committees and congregations of the diocese through resolutions with a call to action or amendment to the diocesan Constitution or Canons.
