Bishop Perry and diocesan staff are here to help! Please contact us to discuss any challenges and opportunities your church communities are facing, including assistance with finance (Mark Miliotto, Diocesan Treasurer), administration and property (Canon Jo Ann Hardy), communications (Anna Stania), and congregational development and clergy transitions (Ellen Ekevag, eekevag@edomi.org). Staff contact information can be found here.

For challenges of transition ministry in TEC, see, e.g., click here. There are significant concerns about the supply of priests due to retirements, the increase in part-time calls and for special (i.e., bicultural and diverse) ministries.
