We are 48 congregations — large and small — across the Green Mountains of Vermont who share in the mission to pray the prayer of Christ, to learn the mind of Christ, and to do the deeds of Christ. We live into this mission through ministries of Formation; Liberation; Communication; Connection; Celebration. Please explore our web site for news and events, communications from the Bishop and various other resources. If you are looking for a local church please click on "Find a Church" in our Quick Links. Our churches welcome you wherever you are on your spiritual journey.

We are updating our site all the time, so please return for updates and consider joining our online community.

Shalom,

I am pleased to announce that the Episcopal Church in Vermont will make 15 rooms in the Bishop Booth Conference Center at Rock Point available for runners and their families who are coming to Burlington for the Key Bank Vermont City Marathon on May 26th. These are runners who were not able to finish the Boston Marathon because of the bombings and who have been invited by the Vermont City Marathon organizers to run in Burlington at no cost. There will be no cost to those who stay at the BBCC.

Marathon Organizers from RunVermont have set up a message board for the event and several people are posting messages offering rooms to these runners. Here is a link to the message I posted today: RunVermont Message Board 

We welcome these and all those coming from Boston to Burlington and pray for a safe and fun day. The Episcopal Cathedral Church of Saint Paul will hold an ecumenical worship service at the Cathedral beginning at 7:10 AM (note the change from the original 7:15) to which all are welcome.

Attention Musicians & Choir Directors:

The Cathedral Chapter is pleased to invite you and your choir to the 2013 Diocesan Choir Day. The Choir Day will be taking place on May 4^th at St. Paul’s Cathedral in Burlington. We will spend the day singing together as a large choir and there will be workshops offered in vocal technique, Welsh harmony, the psalms, and paperless music for small choirs. We will end our day together with choral evensong beginning at 4:30 p.m.   

Sister Joan Chittister, O.S.B., Benedictine nun, author and speaker, will headline The Episcopal Network for Stewardship annual conference scheduled for July 12, 13, 14, in Salt Lake City Utah. Chittister will explore what it means to flourish in our faith, grounding our faith, and rooting it in a God of abundance not a culture of scarcity. Joining Chittister in exploring the theme “ Flourish in Faith” is Bishop Bruce Caldwell of the Episcopal Diocese of Wyoming.

For the first time TENS will be webcasting the opening worship, three plenary sessions, and four designated workshops. More information about the conference and registration can be found here.
