Change is the nursery of music, joy, life, and eternity.
Elegy III: Change by John Donne
As Presiding Bishop Sean Rowe has pointed out, the landscape of The Episcopal Church has shifted dramatically over the last generation. One of the effects of that shift is that the average stay for clergy is definitively shorter than it used to be. The average stay for an Episcopal priest is currently about five years. Part of our response to this in ECCT has been to lean into making the transition process more efficient and contextual, all the while living with the confidence and fullness of life which is our Christian hope. Below you will find information about the transition process and useful resources.
