Dear ELCA Friends (and others),
Welcome to my Blog!
Dear ELCA Friends (and others), It was really exciting in October to go to the installation of our first woman bishop, Elizabeth Eaton, at Rockefeller Chapel in Chicago. Since then, I have attended the first Church Council meeting in November. It was overwhelming as a new member, since there are now 50 of us on the Council. Check back to this blog site, and I will be reviewing some of the items that we covered at that meeting. If you have feedback, please contact me via social media or email. I hope you had a great Thanksgiving! – Cynthia Photo Credit: Installation of Elizabeth Eaton as ELCA Presiding Bishop, Rockefeller Chapel, University of Chicago, Oct. 5,2013.
