Members of Fort Worth’s deputation to General Convention attended the forum organized Wednesday afternoon to introduce the the four nominees for Presiding Bishop. Many more watched the presentation through the General Convention Media Hub‘s live streaming video. This was the first time such a session has been held, allowing the nominees to introduce themselves, present their vision for the church and answer questions submitted from around the Church on a range of topics.
“I will feel better about the part deputies play in confirmation thanks to this time. Well done, committee.” – The Rev. Carlye Hughes

The Episcopal Diocese of Fort Worth is a welcoming, Christ-centered community of congregations committed to a radical hospitality. We are committed to sharing the faith that has changed our lives. We are committed to welcoming ALL people. We have no barriers to participation because of race, gender, or sexual orientation. We are committed to embracing the diversity that God has created. We welcome seekers, embrace inquiry, and offer a wide variety of worship styles grounded and unified by the liturgy in our Book of Common Prayer. We try to take our Christian beliefs and put them to work outside of where we worship. We invite you to any of our churches to join in worship and service.
