Council of Bishops Input on Connectional Table Objectives
 

1. Introduction to Survey on Connectional Table Objectives

 
"Hope for the church is dependent upon the quality of our conversations. Conversations build relationships and relationships build hope. Jesus said, “Where two or three are gathered in my name, I am there among them.” The key to our future is as simple as welcoming Jesus in our midst; it is as complicated as tending to our conversations."

--Bishop John Hopkins, The Power of Conversation

Dear Members of the Council of Bishops,

As we begin a new quadrennium, one of the roles of The Connectional Table is to “set the table” for conversation. We invite you to be a part of the conversation by sharing your thoughts with us about the Connectional Table on the brief online survey. Please complete your answers by Thursday, May 7th. Your input will be shared with members of The Connectional Table at their Spring Meeting on May 12-14, 2009.

In Christ,

Mary Brooke Casad, Executive Secretary

Bishop John Hopkins, Chair
