This Blog is a mixture of reflections and a collection of Formation and Ministry Resources maintained by the Dean of Formation for the Episcopal Church in Connecticut. Inclusion of a resource does not necessarily indicate endorsement. In many cases I have tried to include a variety of perspectives and/or items that are thought provoking or controversial. I hope it is a helpful tool for your ministry!
