Gathering 2020: Diocesan Conference & Convention is a safe place to learn, fellowship, worship corporately and do the annual business of the diocese (aka, Convention). The Bishop and Diocesan Leaders determined the COVID-19 quarantine limitations create an inadequate planning window and we could not produce the event as described. Therefore, it is with lament we announce there will not be a Gathering 2020.

By the Rt. Rev. James L Hobby, Jr.
Since I grew up in a lot of places (3 grade schools, 2 middle schools, and 2 high schools) and have lived in many parts of the country (the Midwest, the East Coast, New England, the South, and Southwestern PA), I have lived my life as a stranger and alien.

The College of Bishops and our own Bishop Hobby, have asked everyone to pray for an end to the pandemic during the Good Friday fast this week. Pray that the spread would stop in its tracks, and for an end to deaths. Please feel free to fast other times, too, as you feel led by the Lord.
Liturgy for a Meal of Longing and Remembrance
Body
In the earliest days of the Church, the Lord's Supper was celebrated in homes in the context of a communal meal. Over time, the meal was set aside, and the sole focus of the gathering became Word and Sacrament. In many traditions, a vestige of the earliest pattern remains in what is often called an Agape Meal. The Agape Meal is commonly received after Eucharist.
