  • Jeanne Boyle - February 2, 2024

    Where can I find the zoom links for the pre-convention hearings?

  • Marion Nechuta - February 2, 2024

    Hitting Register button and not getting through to register for pre-convention hearing. What do I need to do.

  • Meg McKenna - February 2, 2024

    I’m not able to attend tomorrow, Feb 3 — this weekend is our Vestry retreat that was scheduled months ago.

    Are these meetings all different, or is it the same meeting at 4 different times so we choose one of them to attend?

  • Doug Post - February 28, 2024

    I see almost a month ago Jeanne Boyle asked how to view the recordings of the pre-Convention hearings. They do not appear to be on the website. Will they be made available in a timely fashion before Convention?

  • Martha Johnson - February 29, 2024

    Will there be any discussions on church music or workshops for musicians?

    • Pat Hawkins - March 2, 2024

      Martha, there are no workshops at this convention and there is nothing on the agenda regarding church music.

  • Barbara Jensen - March 3, 2024

    What time?

    • Pat Hawkins - March 4, 2024

      Barbara, starting at 9:00am. We hope to have the tentative agenda posted soon.
