Virtual Town Hall Meeting with the Standing Committee: Bishop Search & Transition

We want to hear from you and ask that you join our Diocesan virtual town hall meeting this Saturday, May 3, 2025, at 12:00 noon HST (Sunday at 8:00 a.m. Guam/Saipan). 


At this virtual town hall, the Standing Committee will review the “Bishop Transition Plan.” This town hall gathering is your opportunity to ask questions, make suggestions and provide your thoughts on our way forward as a Diocese and The Episcopal Church. The Search Committee and members of the Transition Committee will attend this meeting as well, so that they might hear all your contributions. As you’ll hear in the presentation, the members of the Search and Transition Committees have been carefully selected from around the Diocese. They are your representatives as we journey through this bishop transition process together.
