Diakonia 2009 World Assembly

Monday July 20 to Monday July 27 2009

Atlanta Georgia USA

WELCOME TO OUR BLOG

Are you planning to attend the World Assembly

in 2009? If so, I hope that you will

participate in this blog.

My name is Sister Carol Burk and I am

a member of the Deaconess Community

of the Evangelical Lutheran Church

in America. My hope is that you, as a member of

a diaconal community/group/roster,

will share your experiences in several ways:

  1. Tell us about your diaconal group:

    Where do you serve?

    To which Church body do you relate?

    How is your group structured?

  2. I have never attended a World Assembly,

    even though I am part of the Planning Committee,

    and I would like to hear what you have to say

    about your experiences.

  3. Tell us about yourself,

    so that we can get to know you.

    If possible, send us a photo of yourself,

    so we can recognize one another

    at the Assembly.

  4. Let’s brainstorm ideas about

    how we can form

    a circle of diaconal friends—a circle

    that will last

    beyond the assembly.

  5. Share your ideas about this blog

    and how it can be used.

If you would like to contact me,

please send me an E-mail at:

carolinasister1949@hotmail.com

I look forward to meeting each one of you—

in cyberspace and at the Assembly!

READY. . .

SET. . .

LET’S BLOG!!!

Do you serve the Lord as a deaconess, deacon, or diaconal minister? If so, then you’ve come to the right place. In this blog I hope to hear from anyone who serves in a diaconal ministry and may attend the Diakonia World Federation’s 2009 World Assembly in Atlanta, Georgia, July 20-27, 2009.

I am a member of the planning committee and I chair the communications sub-committee. However, I have never attended a world assembly, so I’m counting on hearing from folks who have or to make new friends whom I will meet face to face in Atlanta.

The conversation begins. . .
