Diocesan Communications

  • Diocesan Communications Survey:  As part of the diocesan strategic plan launched at our 2011 convention, El Camino Real is conducting a survey throughout the Easter season to determine how its members are currently getting their information about happenings throughout the diocese. The results of the survey will be used to create a communications strategy which incorporates more diverse, inclusive, and accessible ways of learning, connecting and collaborating - so every voice counts!   Go to ECR Communications 2012  to fill out the survey online by May 27th or it can be downloaded here.  Contact the Diocesan Communications Team at communications@edecr.org to request a printed copy by mail or to submit questions or comments.  Completed surveys can be mailed to the Diocese of El Camino Real Communications Team, P.O. Box 1903, Monterey, CA 93942.  Thank you for your participation!

  • Input requested about next Archbishop of Canterbury:  Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr. Rowan Williams, is stepping down as Archbishop at the end of the year and the process for the appointment of a successor has begun. The El Camino Real deputation to the 2012 General Convention invites you to forward your priorities for the ministry of the next Archbishop of Canterbury to Jeff Diehl (jdiehl@albionenvironmental.com), co-chair of the deputation, by May 15, 2012. They will collect your ideas into a summary report that will be distributed to the diocese and transmited to the Anglican Communion Office, per their request. Thank you for participating in this important process.  Come to the Deanery Meeting at St. Jude’s on Saturday June 16 to hear from our Deputies to General Convention.
