Atlanta Consultation on SSBs
I have much more personal to say about my own journey and thoughts. But at the moment, I need to pause to share this news from TEC.
I'm one of the two Deputies from our diocese who will be attending the consultation in Atlanta March 18-19. I'm glad they're going to make a webcast available and happy to share this news with all of you.
Here's the announcement from TEC:

Glad theyre catching up. of course, here we are, those of us designing/ having blessings, with a kinda been there, done that. Hope they ask the folks who have had to put it together de novo....
IT, I'm sorry if this is news to you. It's my sense that the SCLM has been working very hard to collect all SSB liturgies since GC09 -- whether developed by clergy or lay people. I am truly sorry if you haven't seen their requests.
I don't have the SCLM membership list at hand, but I know that Susan Russell is a member. If you want to share yours, you might send it to her.
Please keep me in your thoughts next weekend as we wrestle these issues.
Oh, we stole liberally from Susan and others. What we did was heavily influenced by the bCP's blessing of a civil marriage. But we weren't allowed to use that verbatim, and that, my friends, is the problem.
Because we were blessing a civil marriage.
