The central act of our life together as Episcopalians is always worship. And that remains true at General Convention. The Sunday Eucharist is the largest, and it is also the one where the United Thank Offering, collected in people's Blue Boxes and passed on to the parish and then on to the dioceses, is gathered together from every Diocese in The Episcopal Church, as well as some overseas places who participate.
Here are just a couple of pictures that Duane Dale, spouse of clergy deputy Heidi Frantz-Dale, took yesterday:
Verger Rick Smith of Christ Church, North Conway, leads the procession of all the Bishops.
Bishop Gene Robinson processes in.
Two former Presiding Bishops - Frank Griswold and Edmond Browning - process in with current Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori.
