Coming to Convention
with Intentionality
Convention
Homepage
This year we will come together to celebrate our 102nd Annual Convention of the Episcopal Diocese of Western North Carolina. Since our Centennial Convention, we have initiated new grants, continued to live out our call to build beloved community, and welcomed many new faces to the diocesan staff. This year we will gather in Cherokee, NC, to listen and learn about the Cherokee people.
As we prepare to gather, we encourage you to take time in prayer and in study to prepare your hearts and minds intentionally for our celebration. In order to do this, we are providing links to various resources from our diocese and our guest speaker. We invite you to familiarize yourself with what is provided below. For more information about our guest speaker Tom Belt, CLICK HERE. We look forward to seeing you this fall at the 102nd Annual Convention!
