House of Deputies State of the Church Committee issues report, bulletin inserts
The House of Deputies State of the Church Committee (SOTC) has concluded its work for the triennium. The report, submitted as part of the Blue Book, is available here.
The Committee on the State of the Church has partnered with Forward Movement ,
working together to offer an overview, or "snapshot," of the 38- page
report. This summary report is available as a PDF document in two
formats - as an 8 1/2 x 11 full sheet here or as a half-sheet suitable for use as a bulletin insert, available at no fee here.
Congregations are encouraged to print and distribute this information
so that Episcopalians across the church will gain an awareness of the
state of our Church.
