Today is the first full day of the annual ECMN Convention, and your two delegates, Corinne and Joan, and I are in for a weekend of connection, community, church business, worship, and - best of all - our incredible Presiding Bishop, Michael Curry, will be will us for the weekend, preaching on several occasions.

The theme of this year's Convention is "Repairing the Breach". The description of the weekend reads: Join us to revive our commitment to the Way of Jesus and to one another, and to restore our hope and commitment to repairing the breaches in our lives and communities.

It's a tall order, but if anyone can get us one step closer, it's our Presiding Bishop.

My prayer for you, for us, and for the ECMN this week is for renewed resolve for the work we are called to do together. Walking the Way of Love is not for the faint of heart, but if anyone aside from the Presiding Bishop can get us one step closer, it's you. (Yes, you!) My prayer this week is that you know this.

If you would like to watch online in real time you can register for a Zoom link right here. There is a $15 cost. I would imagine Presiding Bishop Curry's sermons will also be posted later - and Joan, Corinne, and I will be sure to share the highlights.
