About the Diocesan Vision StatementBishop Skip Adams called together a Diocesan Visioning Committee in March 2017 to formulate a diocesan vision to incorporate all parts of diocesan life in The Episcopal Church in South Carolina. Drawing inspiration from historic symbols of our diocese, the Visioning Committee has adopted a Vision Statement that calls upon the legacy of these symbols to unite us in our common mission moving forward. The Visioning Committee, the Bishop, and the Diocesan Council encourage all parishes and missions, all groups and individuals of the diocese to reflect on what these symbols say to us, how they have shaped our history and informed our present life, and how they point us to our future life together. This statement is a summary of the Visioning Committee’s work, but it is not the end of the conversation. Instead, it will serve as a way to begin a conversation that will enable all in The Episcopal Church in South Carolina to respond to Christ's call to us today, and into our future life as a diocese. |
