GC80 - RECAP VIDEO
As promised, here is the final report on the 80th General Convention of The Episcopal Church in Baltimore, Maryland. While The Rt. Rev. Gregory O. Brewer delivered daily video briefings from Baltimore during GC80, the diocesan team wanted to make sure that you heard from your diocesan deputation as well.
Having returned from four demanding days of responsibilities in Baltimore, deputation members from the Diocese of Central Florida gathered once more at the diocesan office in Orlando to record a video recap of their Convention efforts and experiences. This video is offered in lieu of an in-person Convention debriefing, providing an accessible and shareable report that features a summary of the work accomplished.
The GC80 video recap from your diocesan deputation is available at:
