Appreciative Inquiry is the process the diocese now uses to help parishes in transition get a sense of where they want to be headed and what type of clergy would be a good fit for them. Results and analysis from this exercise are available Appreciative Inquiry Summary 2012.
Priest in Charge Announcement
The wardens and vestry of All Saints' Episcopal Church are pleased to announce that we have called the Reverend Bill Bradbury to be our priest in charge. The vestry voted unanimously to call Bill, and also voted unanimously to call him as our priest in charge, instead of as our interim rector. In addition to impressing the vestry, he comes with high recommendations from both Father Tom and Bishop Gayle. We are very excited to have found someone that we all agree is an extremely good fit for All Saints'. Read the full letter from the wardens.
