Meet and Greet
Dear People of St Andrew's and St. Swithin's-
Grace Episcopal Church on Bainbridge Island is delighted to invite you to a Meet and Greet evening with the four bishop candidates on May 1, 2024 at 7pm. Grace will be hosting the event and we welcome you to attend in person. The event will also be live-streamed.
This is the first time that a church outside the I-5 corridor has been included in the bishop candidate's tour. We are excited to have the opportunity to meet with our Episcopal neighbors from Kitsap and the Olympic Peninsula as we prepare to elect our next bishop. It is a wonderful opportunity to get to know our diocesan leaders and each other.
It's helpful for our planning to have you register in advance. A link for registering and more information about the Meet and Greet can be found on the Bishop Transition website here.
The event will begin promptly at 7pm so we encourage you to arrive early to park and get settled in. There will be a question and answer session with each of the four candidates, followed by a short reception. Questions for the candidates must be submitted in advance via the Bishop Transition website.
