Bishop DeDe Duncan-Probe, Diocese of Central New York, Will Be Keynote Speaker

The diocese is hosting a celebration of our ministries together on Saturday, May 18, at Trinity Cathedral from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

This promises to be a day of joy-filled celebration. With our Fall diocesan convention mostly focused on business, this is an opportunity for the whole diocese to get together for fellowship, idea-sharing, and worship.


Keynote Speaker

We are excited to have Bishop DeDe Duncan-Probe from the Diocese of Central New York, and a nominee to be our 28th Presiding Bishop, join us as our keynote speaker.

The day will begin with a continental breakfast in the cathedral’s Parish Hall and fellowship in the nave with a Ministry Fair highlighting our ministries together.

A tentative agenda is below. So we can plan for the breakfast and hospitality we ask attendees to register for the event here. There is no cost to attend.

An important piece of this celebration will be the Ministry Fair with tables highlighting our ministries together, with plenty of time set aside for fellowship and exploring our diverse ministries. If your parish ministry or related organization would like to be represented, please fill out this form and we will reserve a table for you.  It will be a great opportunity to highlight your ministries, upcoming events, and to celebrate our successes over the past year together.
