One of the things I most love about being a Christian is how the relationship and gathering transcends nationality and language barriers. There will be an international gathering of deacons (that's the type clergy I am- one who has focus on service to the Church and World) at GA Tech next July. Think about a group from Asia/Pacific, Africa, Europe, and the Americas & Caribbean you get the look of us. The group started meeting every 4 years starting after the end of World War II. The group is ecumenical and as diverse as any gathering you might ever encounter. To learn more or to join the adventure check out the slide show at:
