A
special invitation from Bishop MacPherson
Dear Diocesan Family:
We
will soon gather in Alexandria for our 29th Annual Diocesan Convention (October
10-11) and I encourage each of you to consider being a part of this important
event. The convention is open to everyone in the diocese, and for those not
serving as delegates, you are invited and encouraged to attend as visitors.
The convention begins at 1:30 p.m. on Friday, October 10 with the opening Eucharist at St. Francis Xavier Cathedral (Roman Catholic) and then continues across the street at the Alexander Fulton Hotel (formerly the Holiday Inn Convention Centre Hotel). The convention will be blessed with two guest speakers, Ms. Edwina Thomas, National Director of Sharing of Ministries Abroad (SOMA), and the Rev'd Canon Dr. Gregory Cameron, Deputy Secretary General and Director of Ecumenical Affairs for The Anglican Consultative Council.
Following opening convention business on Friday will be the convention dinner that evening; the work of Convention will continue on Saturday, and will include my annual address.
Registration information for visitors is available online at www.diocesewla.org or by contacting Dianne White at 318.442.1304 or ladydiwhi@aol.com.
With blessings and prayers, I remain
Faithfully in Christ,
+D. Bruce MacPherson
