"For every one of us may there be in our spiritual practices, in our congregation’s life, and in our diocesan ministry, moments when there is nothing and no one but Jesus.  Jesus, whom we see in his glory.  Jesus alone.  And when we see Jesus, we see Jesus seeing us.  We see Jesus looking upon us, looking at us with eyes of truth, with a heart of compassion, with a mixture on his face of joy and pride and tender nurturing concern."

Our Vision

"Our vision is that our congregations, commissioned and empowered by the Holy Spirit, will grow as ambassadors of Christ’s reconciliation and to God’s world.
(II Corinthians 5:1ff)

To enable this to happen, we envision that: Congregations will develop the resources and leadership to support individual and collective ministry, and diocesan leaders will provide support to these ministries."
