The Servants of the Good Shepherd in conjunction with the Unity Catholic Church will be holding its offical Synod of Bishops on August 30 starting at 10:30 AM  at Atlanta GA.  For those comming in on Friday evening,  let me know your travel plans and and we may have an informal dinner if you would like.    Lunch on August 30 will be either or both sub sandwiches and pizza,  if you have any special diet needs please let us know.

Only those Bishops who are part of our Council have a vote but all others may have be reconised and allowed to speak.  Some of the topics that are on schedule is approved Liturgy,  role of women in the ministry,  wording on the meaning of the word marriage.

Also we have plans for a ordination of a priest and a concecration of a Bishop.  Programs will include instruction on the Latin Mass by Fr Stacy  and Liturgy training as requested and needed by Bishop Charles. Sister Toni will be providing special music and will be avaliable to answer questions on music in the church.

At this point and time all services and instruction will be done at the motel, although I am hopeing for use of the local church by then, Plans are to meet at the motel at 10 am  and either set up at the motel and travel to the church.  For those comming and will not be comming in latter or will be late,  they can contact me on my cell phone for directions or final details 678-927-7754

If  all details are not finished by dinner,  we will break for dinner and then return for additional discussion,  if we are done, we will have a social time after dinner.

For Sunday  we will either have a service at the motel  or if we are using the church we will try and do a private service before thier service and then be a guest for thier service.

I am sorry things are not fully arranged,  but the details are if we use the motel,  just hopeing to have use of a chapel for our services.
