Envisioning Leadership Team

Bishop Terry R. LaValley and other members of the Envisioning Leadership Team are engaged in a 13 month process to discern, define and proclaim a Mutually Shared Vision for the Diocese of Ogdensburg.  As part of the process there will be regional Listening Sessions around the Diocese to obtain input from a variety of groups and individuals.  This input will help Bishop LaValley and the team to clarify our priorities and goals as a Diocese for the next two years.

The purpose of the Listening Sessions is to rejoice in the blessings that God has given to this local Church, to envision the future of this great Diocese and to surface key priorities that our Diocese can pursue in the service of the Kingdom of God in our midst over a 24 month time period.  The sessions will give Bishop LaValley the opportunity to hear from a wide cross-section of our brothers and sisters in the Diocese.

There are separate listening sessions for Chancery Staff, the Presbyterate, and Deacons and their Wives, in addition to a listening session for each Deanery. The complete list of deanery sessions is as follows:

Each session is scheduled to go from 6:30-8:30pm:
