- Import and initial sort of information from the main diocesan website,
- Improve finding and viewing information,
- Review and refine.

The Diocesan Council and Standing Committee pages have been updated.

This new page provides resources to consider as you contemplate your annual giving program.

Marriage and Remarriage section of the Diocesan Policies updated
We have reorganized the previously combined Marriages and Remarriages section into two separate sections. The Policy was converted from a PDF to a web page, and the forms have been relocated
-
Documents Page updated
After a couple of months of testing the Documents Page has been reverted back to its former long scrolling format. With the more compact layout, it wasn’t possible to provide links direct to sub-sections. After considering solutions for a while, and looking at other options, We’ve reverted the page back to the previous layout. To help you get to the right section we’ve added a table of contents.

Lay & Clergy Continuing Education, and Online Form Updates
We’ve just updated the continuing education information, and updated several inter-related forms (and a few others) to standardize how forms are delivered going forward.
