On Wednesday the House of Bishops and House of Deputies met jointly to hear the 4 Presiding Bishop nominees speak to us and answer questions from all around the wider church--3 hours of impassioned words and hopes for our church and a chance to really get to know the nominees. Bishops will gather tomorrow morning at St. Mark's Cathedral to elect the new Presiding Bishop. Word of that election will come to the House of Bishops for us to vote whether to affirm the election. Please pray for us all.
Meanwhile legislative hearings are underway for the many and varied resolutions to come before both houses.
I send blessings from Utah to you all.
