Listening Events
A Listening Event is a 90-minute meeting, where people are encouraged to
participate and provide input into the bishop search process. People will be
asked to fill out a survey questionnaire and compare and share their views in
small groups. The groups will brainstorm, discuss, and write down their thoughts
about the future ministries and mission of our Diocese, their highest dreams of
what is possible for our Diocese, and the leadership qualities they value. It is
the hope and prayer of the search committee that each parish will host listening
events, either on its own or in conjunction with neighboring parishes.
Before holding a local Listening Event, each parish is asked to send one or
more lay representatives to its Archdeaconry’s Regional Listening Event.
Suggested parish representatives include wardens, convention
delegates/alternates, etc., but anyone is welcome to attend. Parishes are not
limited in the number of people they may send to a regional event. Members of
the Search Committee will lead the regional listening events and facilitate
small group discussions. Lay attendees will not only participate in providing
information but also receive the training necessary to lead their own parish
events.
