GC Reflections by Charles Mack

I have two initial reflections on General Convention. The first is a high. It is the tremendous sense of renewal and excitement. This is the Church into which I was baptized so many years ago. The second is the mundane. I watched the Canons Committee pick apart a poor petitioner ill served by his chancellor in drafting a very innocuous housekeeping matter. The multitude of lawyers and priests then proceeded to redraft the proposal using a big screen and asking all the basic questions the proponent failed to think through. I am going back to the committee now to see if all of the redraft makes sense. The Presiding Bishop's sermon during Eucharist was a dramatic call to mission. Charles Mack.
