Convention Breakfast Conversation

Breakfast at convention was a hit. We will continue to schedule deacon breakfast as a way to support deacons, improve communications and build up relationships.
Deacon would like to honor those who have passed at our Renewal of Vows service. The council also felt it appropriate to purchase a book commemorating their service to the diaconate in CT.
