Loading...While it is easy to think of stewardship as something that happens on a congregational level, we need to remember that stewardship must not be limited to our response at the local level. We are also called to share our time, talents and financial resources to further the mission of the church at the diocesan level.
The 181st Convention of the Diocese of Kentucky will be hosted by the Four Rivers Deanery and will be held Feb. 27-28 at Grace Church, Paducah. At this convention, delegates will elect members to a variety of diocesan positions. As the nominating committee chairperson, I ask that every layperson and member of the clergy of our diocese prayerfully consider the time and talents that he/she can offer in support of the work of the Church, and be willing to be nominated for election to one of these positions.
A list of the positions to be filled at the next diocesan convention may be downloaded by clicking here. The list includes qualifications for the various positions, continuing members and members whose terms will expire this year. The one-page Nomination Form, which has been mailed to each congregation, also may be downloaded by clicking here.
It is important that the individuals who are nominated have given their permission to be nominated. Nominees will be sent a biographical information sheet, which they will be asked to complete and return. This information will be used in nominee profiles, which will be published in the Episcopal News and the diocese’s Web site.
Please return completed nomination forms to the diocesan office by Nov. 3 in order to ensure that the nominee’s profile will be published in Episcopal News. Nominations may be made after this date from the floor of the convention.
