Dear Brothers and Sisters from around the Diocese,
It has been a week since we started the general convention here in Indianapolis and it feels like we haven't yet started. Resolutions from committees are coming and going to houses like small drips of water.
I am a member of the committee on consecration of bishops and We presented eight different resolutions, names for bishops: Susan Goff, Bishop Suffragan, Diocese of Virginia; Dorsey McConnell, Bishop of Pittsburg; Robb Hirschfield, Bishop Coadjutor, Diocese of New Hampshire; Nick Knisely, Diocese of Rhode Island; Geoff Fisher, Diocese of Texas: Doug Fisher, Diocese of Western Massachusetts Robb Wright, Diocese of Atlanta; Jake Owensby, Bishop, Diocese of Western Louisiana.
Your deputation has been working very hard, going to as many hearings as we can and reporting back to our deputies so we can all have a sense of the big picture of resolutions coming to the floor. There are others working behind the scenes: Kari Butler, Karen Pena, the Dean of the Cathedral, the Very Rev. Ray Waldon, Craig Wirth, Becky Ball and The Rev. Robin James, gathering as much information as they can to share with everyone as we prepare for making 2015 a great convention.
If you would like to track resolutions, watch live feed from the floor, etc., you can go to the convention website: www.generalconvention.org
