Reflections on Annual Council
There were several things which were notably different this year compared to years past. First, the Presiding Bishop was in attendance. She was very impressed with two things, which we do very well, our workshops and our youth events. She indicated that she was going to use us as an example for other dioceses to follow. She spoke of service and mission.
The presiding Bishop’s presence may have led to the other striking difference: There was no fighting or arguing over the budget. I personally feel that the Diocese’s implantation of a revised convocation system was equally responsible. I attended the U2charist workshop where we studied the music of Bono of the band U2 and how it can be incorporated into our Sunday services. Our Sunday morning service was a U2charist.
