Website Changes

September 26, 2024

You may notice some changes in our diocesan website. As part of the bishop transition, we are no longer using the dove logo or "Joy in Christ, a way of life." The discernment process to articulate a new vision and mission will be a deliberate and lengthy process, so this is a kind of scaffolding, a placeholder until we begin that conversation. The new language was developed by Bishop Kara and members of the Standing Committee and is based on the language of the prayer book, particularly the baptismal covenant and catechism. Complaints, edits, and suggestions are very welcome; this is NOT permanent! Thank you.
