For many of us, meeting together to read from Scripture, talk, listen, laugh, pray, and discuss simple homework assignments is a cherished facet of church life. Imagine if the group was comprised of as many people of color as white people, co-led by a person of color, and meeting to take a deep dive into issues of race. This is what happened when ten church members began meeting, via Zoom because of the pandemic, in a Be the Bridge group.
Celebrating 175 years of mission in Christ, we are a diverse community of believers following the Episcopal tradition across our 81-county diocese spanning nearly 70,000 square miles in the central, eastern, and northern regions of Texas. Founded in 1838, we are more than 450 active clergy-strong with 174 congregations, approximately 70 missional communities, 27 campus missions, chaplaincies, foundations, institutions, and over 72,000 parishioners.
