Building on the three “Open Conversations” held in Conway, Charleston and Bluffton in July, 2018, The Episcopal Church in South Carolina will take a new step in the holy work of reconciliation with an online "Live Open Conversation" on October 11 on Facebook Live, the Rev. William Coyne says. "This new event offers the possibility and promise of even more engagement from folks around the diocese and the churches of eastern South Carolina," says Fr. Coyne, who is Missioner for Returning Congregations for The Episcopal Church in South Carolina. Fr. Coyne recently reported to the Diocesan Council about this exciting new opportunity to use Facebook Live as an avenue for conversations with people who have questions and concerns. “As we await the court setting in motion the implementation plan and timeline for returning congregations, we will continue to listen, share information, and collect contacts of those who wish to be partners in building the new future together,” Fr. Coyne told the Council. The Live Open Conversation format allows the opportunity to listen deeply and talk to people in the pews, Fr. Coyne says. In keeping with same summer Open Conversation theme, participants will be not required to identify themselves or their churches, but may chose to do so. To participate, people can simply visit the TECSC Facebook page, www.facebook.com/episcopalchurchsc, on October 11 at 6:30 pm. Contact Fr. Coyne at [email protected] or 843-614-0679.
