Diocesan Convention
Our Diocesan Convention is an assembly composed of Bishops, Clergy, and Delegates who all sit as one body for the purpose of attending to the business of the Church. This year, 2009, was the 219th Annual Diocesan Convention of the Diocese, and the theme was "Shared Blessings". You can download a copy of the Bishop's Convention Address. Keep an eye out for video clips from the Bishop's address and legislative sessions.
