Join us for Synod 2019

Register Now for Synod 2019

Schedule

Bishop Morales invites everyone to participate in the 142nd Synod of the Diocese of Quincy, October 17-19, 2019 at the Embassy Suites, 100 Conference Center Drive in East Peoria, Illinois. This year, we will be hearing more from the Bishop on how the Diocese is becoming unified, being rooted in Jesus Christ, joining in His mission, and showing His compassion in the way that we minister.   

We will have a series of presentations by Fr. Chip Edgar on how our story of faith combines with His story.  How in looking at our faith story, we find how our story intersects with the story of Jesus.  In addition to the traditional matters considering the governance of the Diocese, we will have periods of fellowship with each other, and worship together. 

We will hear from the various missions and ministries of the Diocese, including a video on our ministry relationships with the Province of Myanmar, the St. Andrew’s Orphanage, and the clergy of the Diocese of Hpa-An, a report from the Commission on Ministry, an update from the Strategic Planning Committee and the Generosity Team (formerly the Fundraising Committee). There will be time to learn about the opportunities for ministry and discipleship in the Diocese.  

Various groups from within and outside of the Diocese will be at display tables sharing information about ways you can get involved in the ministries God is calling them to.
Please register early and if you have questions, please don’t hesitate to email synod2019@dioceseofquincy.org or call the diocesan office at (309) 688-8221.
