Dear Trinity Church, In two weeks, eight people from Trinity Church fly to Wellspring Church in Denver (pictured above) for our annual diocese meeting. What is a Diocese Meeting? If you're new to Anglicanism, as most of us are at Trinity, Fr. Billy Waters (Wellspring's lead pastor) wrote this helpful description of what this gathering is: Every year our Diocese assembles for the annual Synod at the beginning of February. Some may ask: ‘What is a Synod?’ and ‘What is Diocese?’ A Diocese is simply a region under the pastoral care of a Bishop. Our Diocese, composed of about 35 congregations, is overseen by Bishop Ken Ross. A Synod is a gathering of clergy and laity from within the Diocese. Simply put, a Diocesan Synod is a gathering of churches under our Bishop’s care and leadership. Every year, the Rocky Mountain Diocese hosts a wonderful gathering in Colorado that allows members of our congregation to have a small taste of the worldwide Anglican Church. From workshops to worship, to meals together and new relationships, it is something you all should consider attending one of these years! This year, the meeting is going to focus on the Holy Spirit, and will gather together priests and congregational members from Hawaii to Colorado. Please click the button below to see the faces and meet some of the people who lead our Rocky Mountain Diocese and need your prayers!
Always learning,
Father Matt
p.s. - if you're relatively new to our church, there are 4 spots that just opened up for our newcomers dinner on Friday, February 4th. Sign up here!
