SUMMARY OF GOALS AND OBJECTIVES Goal One: SPIRITUAL RENEWAL. To encourage spiritual formation and growth of laity and clergy. Goal Two: YOUNG PEOPLE. To strengthen congregational and diocesan programs for youth, college students and other young adults. Goal Three: O UTREACH. To expand ministries of service witness and advocacy through reaching and serving people beyond ourselves. Goal Four: HOSPITALITY AND INCORPORATION. To expand and empower congregations through the increasing involvement of new and existing members. Goal Five: CONGREGATIONAL DEVELOPMENT. To start new congregations and to nurture and sustain existing ones. Goal Six: DIOCESAN STRUCTURES AND RESOURCES. To ensure that the structure and resources of the Diocese promote achievement of these goals. i DIOCESE OF NORTH CAROLINA MISSION ACTIONS — 2007 ACTIONS PERTAINING TO DIOCESAN STRUCTURE The recommendations from the Diocesan Structure Subcommittee are based on these guiding considerations: • We are a resource-size diocese, though we have been functioning as a smaller, pastoral-size diocese. In order to operate more effectively, and in order to avoid burn-out among staff and frustration among congregations, we need to increase staff size and organize ourselves in a way that allows for healthy diocesan and congregational inter-action that is not Bishop-dependent. • We are a diocese in transition, due to both our place in the Anglican Communion and our expressed desire to be transformed into a missionary diocese. Because of this change element in our life as a diocese, we must avoid making permanent staffi ng and property decisions which will commit our energies and resources in ways that might restrict the unfolding of our new life. • We are a diocese in need of review and restructure, especially with regard to how we make decisions. If we are to undergo the deep transformation we desire, we must be open to changing the ways in which we do business together. EPISCOPAL DIOCESE OF NORTH CAROLINA PLAN FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF PHASE II OF THE MISSION ACTION PLAN APPROVED BY DIOCESAN COUNCIL JUNE 29, 2006 1. REGIONAL MINISTRY DEVELOPMENT The revitalization and development of the existing congregations of the diocese as communities where disciples of Jesus are formed and through which God’s mission in the world is lived out is at the heart of MIT Phase II. The growth and development of the work of the Episcopal Church will depend as much on the revitalization of the existing churches as on the establishment of new churches. As such, Phase II of the MIT wisely proposes a regional approach and strategy to this revitalization and development of congregations. I believe this strategy to be not only sound but essential. Such an approach provides needed support and resources for congregations on the local/regional level. It also creates a practical system of inter-connectedness and a network of relationships between congregations, regions and the wider diocese. It addresses the need for both the development and resourcing of congregations, through direct and substantial interaction with the diocesan structure. ii MISSION ACTIONS As a means of implementing such a regional structure I am proposing the following. First, that we adopt the principle of Regionalized Support and Resourcing as a basic strategy for the revitalization of the existing church in our diocese. This is an essential strategic decision which drives the essence of Phase II. An appendix outlining the regional ministry approach is appended to this. Second, that we phase in this model, rather than attempting to jump into it all at once. I am proposing that we do so with the establishment of a fi rst phase region to be established in the 2nd half of 2007. Given the importance of the regional strategy to diocesan wide revitalization on the congregational level and given the signifi cant investment required to accomplish it, it seems most prudent to begin with a fi rst phase, as a way of testing the model and refi ning it for future incorporation and development throughout the diocese. Third, that we establish a task force by August 2006 to be charged with fl eshing out the details of the model, identifying actions steps and establishing a time line necessary to implement the fi rst phase in the Fall of 2007. Further, this task force would be charged with identifying a process for evaluation and review of the fi rst phase in the third year of its existence (probably 2010), to provide a basis for modifi cation of the model, based on our experience, and to guide us in expanding it until we reach the level of the four regions proposed in the MIT Report. Funding: Funding of the fi rst phase seems appropriately support from the resources generated by the sale of the Summit. The essential cost will be that of a regional missioner, offi ce expenses, etc. This approach offers a responsible means of investment in the future of the diocese, as the same time it supports the development of a new model for ministry. It allows us to begin with one region rather than four at once. It allow us to learn from the experience and then target the investment of funds and people based on actual experience. It provides a means of graduating into a regional system, living with it, and only then making longer term institutional changes and commitments (canonical changes of convocation) after experience warrants. Within the 5-7 yrs of Phase II the regional system could be well established, fl ourishing, and accomplishing the work of revitalizing congregations as communities of those who follow Jesus. 2. LAND FOR NEW CONGREGATIONS We presently have three congregations in formation that will soon need assistance in the acquisition of land. While multiple sources of funding and procurement will be needed, the diocese itself must be a major source of funds and support as well. Additionally, future new congregations in Phase III need to be established with plans for land issues addressed and funded. The level of funding needed will require signifi cant fund raising via a capital campaign, annual appeal or other identifi ed means. In the course of developing a plan for funding land for new congregations, it will be important for the Council to be in conversation with the North Carolina Episcopal Church Foundation to discover ways of collaboration on this matter. iii DIOCESE OF NORTH CAROLINA 3. YOUTH AND YOUNG ADULT MINISTRY DEVELOPMENT During Phase I a substantial amount of work needed to further develop Youth Ministry in the diocese on the local/regional level will take place. The same is true for the establishment of Young Adult ministry. Phase II is the period of exercising these ministry developments as a primary way of forming disciples of Jesus on the local and regional level. Funding: The youth and young adult ministry initiatives should, in my opinion, eventually be funded from the Mission and Ministry budget. That funding will need to be supplemented from resources generated from the sale of the Summit on a graduated declining basis. The direct service being provided congregations in this area should provide a strong basis for this becoming a budget area funded through askings. 4. SCHOOL OF MINISTRY During Phase II, I envision the development of the School of Ministry as a resource for and a means of fostering lay adult theological education, spiritual formation and training for ministry throughout the diocese. I envision gradual reduction in subsidy of the School from trust funds, with its support being assumed in a graduated way by the mission and ministry budget and from grants and other sources. The same logic of graduated support through askings would seem to apply here as well. 5. RENEWED EMPHASIS ON GOSPEL-BASED SOCIAL MINISTRY Organization. The MIT Report envisioned the placement of regional Deacons in the four regions.

  • Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018
    Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018 Conforming to General Convention 2018 1 Preface Christians have since ancient times honored men and women whose lives represent heroic commitment to Christ and who have borne witness to their faith even at the cost of their lives. Such witnesses, by the grace of God, live in every age. The criteria used in the selection of those to be commemorated in the Episcopal Church are set out below and represent a growing consensus among provinces of the Anglican Communion also engaged in enriching their calendars. What we celebrate in the lives of the saints is the presence of Christ expressing itself in and through particular lives lived in the midst of specific historical circumstances. In the saints we are not dealing primarily with absolutes of perfection but human lives, in all their diversity, open to the motions of the Holy Spirit. Many a holy life, when carefully examined, will reveal flaws or the bias of a particular moment in history or ecclesial perspective. It should encourage us to realize that the saints, like us, are first and foremost redeemed sinners in whom the risen Christ’s words to St. Paul come to fulfillment, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” The “lesser feasts” provide opportunities for optional observance. They are not intended to replace the fundamental celebration of Sunday and major Holy Days. As the Standing Liturgical Commission and the General Convention add or delete names from the calendar, successive editions of this volume will be published, each edition bearing in the title the date of the General Convention to which it is a response.

  • The Architectural and Historical Significance of All Saints’, Warrenton, NC Prepared by the Rev
    Photo taken May 30, 2019 The Architectural and Historical Significance of All Saints’, Warrenton, NC Prepared by the Rev. Dr. Brooks Graebner Historiographer, Episcopal Diocese of North Carolina May 1, 2019 I. The Notable African American Episcopal Heritage of Warren County Warren County can lay claim to being the birthplace of some of the great African American leaders of the Episcopal Church. The first is Caroline Wiley Cain Bragg, born in Warrenton in 1804, who as an enslaved member of the Thomas White family was brought to be baptized at Emmanuel Church, Warrenton. Caroline Bragg would eventually move to Petersburg, Virginia, where she would be instrumental in the founding of St. Stephen’s, the first black Episcopal church and a center for ministry throughout southern Virginia. Her grandson, the Rev. George Freeman Bragg, was born and baptized in Warrenton before going to live with his grandmother in Petersburg. He would become the leading historian of the black Episcopal Church and rector of St. James’, Baltimore, where the current Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church, the Most Rev. Michael B. Curry, would be one of his successors. [Bragg’s feast day in our calendar of saints is August 3.] 2 Another prominent Warren County native, and another grandson of Caroline Bragg, was the Rev. Thomas White Cain, the first black candidate for Holy Orders in Virginia. He served the oldest black church in Texas--St. Augustine of Hippo Episcopal Church in Galveston—and represented the Diocese of Texas in the national General Convention of the Episcopal Church. Thomas Cain perished in the historic Galveston storm of 1900, and the current All Saints’ church building was constructed as a memorial to him.

    SILVER SLOPES: PRESERVING NORTH AMERICA’S SKI LODGES by WILLIAM CHAD BLACKWELL (Under the Direction of Wayde Brown) ABSTRACT An examination of the unique case for the historic preservation of the ski lodges of North America. A brief history and evolution of ski resorts addresses the historic significance of ski lodges as a cultural resource. Case studies of five ski lodges provide a representative look at this unique resource. An analysis of the ski lodge as a cultural resource, its place as a twentieth century building type, and the ramifications in a preservation context concludes the argument.
