Update from General Convention
Dear Friends at St Barnabas:
I have been sending updates to the Deanery blog, but wanted to send you some news directly.
This morning, Becky Alden swapped with me. She became the lay alternate, and I went on the floor for the morning session. Our deputation sits way up front - and now I can report on their pole decoration: a Red Sox hat!
Since the deputation sits so far forward, they can see the secretariat very well. I took the opportunity to take pictures before the session began. The flags of all the countries of The Episcopal Church are displayed behind the secretariat.
Vermont is in the row behind Massachusetts. They have very creatively put postcards and Ben & Jerry's pint containers on their pole. A selection of pole decorations are included in our photo album.
Sam Gould brought Mickey Mouse ears made of balloons, a left-over from our Province I dinner. The deputation from Michigan, seated directly in front of Massachusetts, includes Daniel Appleyard, brother of Bob Appleyard. We made Daniel wear the balloons for a picture with Sam & Jane Gould from Lynn, MA.
