After a brief break, the Bishop reconvened the convention. The video, “Year in the Life of the Diocese” was shown. At 3:55 p.m. the Bishop called on David Hoover, Chair of the Nominating Committee, who thanked his committee for their work and those who volunteered to serve and stand for election. The Rev. Donald Bushyager, Judge of Elections, gave instructions for voting. Balloting was completed at 4:04 p.m. The Convention viewed a video “Ministry Minute” on missionary work being done among Muslims in the Middle East. The results of the vote by orders were announced: Clergy Order: 85 yes, 12 No, 9 Abstain Lay Order: 118 Yes, 45 No, 6 Abstain Leadership Reports were then received: • Commission on Racism – Nancy Bolden Mrs. Bolden expressed appreciation to Bp. Duncan for always allowing time for the commission to report to the convention and apologized for leaving the name of the Rev. Nancy Chalfant Walker off the commission members’ list. She announced that an antiracism workshop would take place in December at St. Brendan’s, Franklin Park. Noting that 2/3 of the parishes in the diocese have minority members Mrs. Bolden expressed her opinion that our governing bodies should therefore reflect the culture & experience of these minorities. She drew attention to a preliminary flyer concerning Absalom Jones’ Day in 2006. Susan Clever from St. Andrew’s, New Kensington, was announced as the winner of the [Racism Commission] logo competition. The Rev. Linda Manuel accepted the award certificate on her behalf. The Bishop called forward Rachel Aquaviva, of St. Martin’s, Monroeville, to share another “Ministry Minute” with pictures: “Battling Poverty,” a mission trip to Belize with Rock the World. Further Leadership Reports were received: • President, Standing Committee – has been submitted by title and will be in final Convention Journal • President, Board of Trustees (By title) – Convention prayed for President Jack Morgan who was hospitalized for a blood transfusion • President, Diocesan Council (By title) – The Rev. Daniel Crawford. • President, Pittsburgh Episcopal Foundation (By title) – David Black, not present at convention • President, Episcopal Church Women: Cindy Thomas announced a new initiative of ECW: “Family Life Movement.” Their first project will be a mission trip to help with the Hurricane Katrina relief effort. (Mrs. Thomas also serves as Administrator of Diocesan Youth Happening and encouraged deputies to send their teenagers to a Happening Weekend to strengthen their faith). Episcopal Relief & Development – Mary Sweeney Drop in a bucket designated this year for Malaria prevention and treatment. As of September 20, $73,115.85 has been given to ERD from the Diocese of Pittsburgh. The Rev. Eric Taylor, St. Phillip’s, Moon Township shared a ministry moment on a missionary trip to the Mississippi Gulf area and read a letter the team had just received from a woman they met there. At 4:45 P.M., Convention gathered in assigned meeting rooms for District Caucuses for elections for Council and the Board of Trustees. 33
