Friday.
Another long day. Started with committee meeting at 7:30. At the House of Bishop's we met all the other bishops from outside the Episcopal Church--Brazil, Panama, Cuba, Sweden, Scotland and on and on.
Kristi Neal was one of the deacons in the Eucharist which was fun.
We met with the Deputies to talk about Structure which was fun and interesting. It's new for the two houses to talk to each other and a good thing.
Then more committee meetings. I did get to see all the youth during a break.
Of course, tomorrow is the day to elect the new Presiding Bishop---we bishops go to the Cathedral in the morning to vote and then the name of the one selected goes to the Deputies for confirmation.
The work of my committee--on policies around the use of alcohol---is almost done. Once our resolutions are finished, then we can maybe sleep later in the morning.
