The Diocesan Council invites you to participate in listening sessions on reparations.
In response to a resolution at last May’s Diocesan Convention, Council was charged with taking up this issue. An ad hoc Committee on Reparations recommended listening sessions across the diocese.
At the listening sessions facilitators will welcome attendees and introduce the speakers, the Revs. Florence Ledyard and Jason Poling. Each speaker will present a different side speaking approximately ten minutes. Then follows an open forum for attendees to express their opinions. At the end, the facilitators will wrap up the session. The purpose of the listening session is for the Diocesan Council to hear your opinions.
November 29, 7:00 PM, Claggett Center

You may attend as many sessions as you would like.
Bishop Sutton expects to be at all sessions. Members of the Diocesan Council will attend the sessions to lis-ten and/or take notes. Join us for this holy conversation and engage in the ministry of reconciliation in God’s world and in our dio-cese.
Faithfully,
Diocesan Council
