Nearly 100 people participated in the first day of Candidate Conversations, the three-day virtual event held  in place of the traditional "Walkabouts" that are usually a part of a bishop election process. These fully-online and virtual forums are taking place on Zoom and provide an opportunity for the people of the diocese to hear directly from the candidates about issues affecting our common life, and to help the candidates learn more about what matters most to people in the diocese.

Yesterday, the candidates answered five questions about a variety of topics during the morning panel discussions. The morning session was recorded and can be viewed at this link. The evening breakout sessions were more informal and gave the candidates an  opportunity to have more informal discussions with people of the diocese while each were in their own "breakout" room. Those sessions were not recorded, but similar sessions will be offered on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings.

The same sessions will be offered on Tuesday and Wednesday April 13-14, 2021. People may watch and participate the Candidate Conversations on Zoom, but those daily sessions will also be shared live on the Diocesan YouTube channel at this link: www.youtube.com/c/DioceseofSC. People will only be able to view the evening breakout sessions through the Zoom link below:
