Dear ELCA Friends (and others),

It was really exciting in October to go to the installation of our first woman bishop, Elizabeth Eaton, at Rockefeller Chapel in Chicago.

Since then, I have attended the first Church Council meeting in November. It was overwhelming as a new member, since there are now 50 of us on the Council.

Check back to this blog site, and I will be reviewing some of the items that we covered at that meeting.

If you have feedback, please contact me via social media or email.

I hope you had a great Thanksgiving!

– Cynthia
