At the last meeting of the Synod of the Trinity, it was noted that all of the 16 member presbyteries have active ecumenical efforts within their bounds.

 

Accordingly, we'd like to gather some information on what is happening to share with each other. So if you are aware of any ecumenical activity your congregation or members are involved in, could you please share with me so that I can share with the Synod.

 

You can send the information to me at jboltwv@johnbolt.com

 

Thanks, and I look forward to hearing what's happening within the bounds of the Presbytery of West Virginia.

John A. Bolt, Synod Commissioner
