The next of the NOOMA series we'll view is called "Noise." It features one of my favorite stories from the Hebrew Scriptures! And it raises some very timely questions.

At the beginning of our discussion last week, a question was asked about the structure of the Episcopal Church. I answered the question briefly, but this week we have a special opportunity to see that structure in action.

In late June of this year, the General Convention of the Episcopal Church met as it does every three years. Every diocese of the church is represented at the convention by their bishop and by delegations of clergy and lay people. All important decisions that affect the entire church are made at the Convention.

Tuesday evening at 6 p.m., St. Alban's Episcopal Church (2816 Deborah Dr.) is hosting a General Convention Follow-Up meeting. Bishop Jake Owensby and other delegates from our diocese will be present to report and respond to questions. Light refreshments will be served after the meeting.

I plan to head to St. Alban's as soon as our meeting ends. Anyone who wishes is welcome to go with me. If you are really interested in this, we can end our meeting a bit early. I'll bring you back to campus as soon as you have had time to partake of the goodies at St. Alban's.
