Of her time spent in ECCT Sandra said, "It has been my privilege the serve as Secretary of the Diocese and to have been a part of so many changes in ECCT, including TREC-CT, reimagining Annual Convention, the creation of Intentional Episcopal Communities, having served as part of our deputation to General Convention, preparing the rolls for our Episcopal Electing Convention, and to welcoming my seminary classmate as our new Bishop Diocesan. Thank the parish of Christ Church, Pomfret for their generous support and encouragement during this transition!"
"Working with The Rev. Sandra Cosman has been a great gift; seeing a familiar face from my days at The Episcopal Divinity School has been a blessing during my own transition and I kindly extend my gratitute for her leadership at Christ Church in Pomfret," said aid the Rt. Rev. Jeffrey W. Mello, Bishop Diocesan. "They are blessed to have a wonderful, kind-hearted, and deeply insightful leader within their parish."

As Secretary of the Diocese, Sandra has faithfully served us with her care, creativity, and candor," said the Rev. Timothy Hodapp, Canon for Mission Advancement & Coaching. "We will miss her unflappable warmth and wit, often shared through a soft-spoken observation that brings the room to laughter.
Sandra has completed her last day as full-time staff of the Episcopal Church in Connecticut on March 22.
