Mission Council Ministry Network Nominees

Judith Duncan

Nominee for: Mission Council, Lay Person

Please describe your current involvement in the Episcopal Church in Connecticut using first person, narrative language.

I have attended convention as a delegate from my parish. I have also worked with the Canons and Bishops during our two-year transition to assure continued services were available for the congregation.

  Please describe your current involvement in your local community and any wider community engagement using first person, narrative language.

I have been involved with the vestry at St. Alban’s for nine years, currently the senior warden. I have helped organize parish cleanup days days, the planting of daffodils on the church campus, and making sandwiches for Church by the Pond.

  Please provide a brief personal statement as to why you are suited to this position using first person narrative language.

I learned a lot about the Episcopal diocese of Albany when I was an employee of St. Luke’s Episcopal Church in Saranac Lake, NY. I am interested in bringing my knowledge from that experience to ECCT both to compare and share. I also have experience with making old churches more accessible to those with physical challenges.
