Listening Sessions in August
Search & Nomination Committee seeks input for diocesan profile.
The
Bishop Search & Nomination Committee is inviting all laypeople and clergy in the diocese to attend a bishop search listening session in August. Input received at the sessions will guide the committee as it writes the diocesan profile, a detailed description of the diocese that helps applicants learn more about the Diocese of Chicago and its people.
The listening sessions, which will take place across the diocese and will focus on how attendees see God at work in the diocese, what challenges the people of the diocese are facing together, and what the diocese seeks in its next bishop.
Additional listening sessions for clergy only will be announced soon.
In addition to the listening sessions, the search committee will conduct an online survey later this summer. Watch the newsletter for details, and find more information on the bishop search website. Q
uestions can be directed to the Search & Nomination Committee via email.

Antiracism Workshop: an Opportunity to Grow in Love
