Unpacking the Elections
This has been a very divisive election cycle. As the dust settles after Election Day, we need to focus on living our lives. This month's webcast will provide a forum with Bishops Doug Fisher, Nicholas Knisely, and Rob Hirschfield to discuss:
- what do the results mean
- how can we heal the hurt/s that the election may have caused
- what resources are available to bring us together.
The webcast is from 7:30 - 8:30 November 15th. James McKim, Province 1 Representative to the Episcopal Church Executive Council's AntiRacism Committee and Chair of the Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire's Diversity Committee and The Rev. Karen Brown Montagno, Diocese of MA Director of Congregational Resources and Training, will facilitate the conversation.
