Episcopal Diocese of Rhode Island Events Newsletter  |   September 9th  2011

Greetings!

 

With all the Labor Day adventures and Irene blackouts, many of us have been farther from our email than usual. It felt nice, right?

 

This special edition of eRISEN is just to ensure that despite all outages, you've heard about the important diocesan events happening this weekend and beyond.

 

This Sunday there is a Diocesean 9/11 Evensong at Grace Church for the tenth anniversary of that tragedy. Bishop Wolf will be officiating. See the full listing below. 

 

Most importantly, this year's Program and Budget Hearings begin next week. See below for the dates and locations. If you can't attend one yourself, be sure your parish's convention delegates and vestry members are able to make it to a hearing. Your parish's input is critical to the process, and the information distributed and discussed at these hearings is necessary for your delegates to make an educated vote on the budget at convention in November.  

 

Remember you can always browse the Christian formation Catalog online to see what major events are on the horizon.  See you around the Diocese soon!

 

Blessings,
Ruth Meteer
