How many different ways can YOU answer the same question?

July 13, 2016 / By Holly Nye, Clergy Delegate

Episcopal candidates put in a very long day on Tuesday. Each nominee meets with 8 different interview teams, between 9 am and 9:30 pm. Each time, they answer some of the same questions, along with one or two additional questions devised by interview teams. Nominees rely on the Spirit for the stamina to travel through the day. 

Each of the eight teams, made up of people from across the NEJ, interviews all 11 candidates - a long day for all!

It is a rare opportunity to see and hear the energy, dreams and vision of some of the most gifted leaders in our church! I believe I speak for all of us in the UNY delegation in saying: we are grateful for this opportunity to serve, and to prayerfully discern leadership for this region of God's church. Thank you for sending us and trusting us to do this sacred work!
