 and our General Convention deputation.

Today, the Episcopal Church in South Carolina's deputation to the 79th General Convention met at St. Thomas in North Charleston to prepare for this summer. The Rev. Gay Clark Jennings led the group through the schedule, how to propose legislation, what topics to expect to discuss this year, and many other topics.

Draft Schedule for the 79th General Convention

It was a pleasure to have Gay back with us. She came for the investiture of the Rt. Rev. Charles vonRosenberg as our provisional bishop in January 2013 and then almost exactly 5 years ago, she was at St. Thomas in March 2013 to meet with lay and clergy leaders of our diocese for a resource day.
