DARIEN, IL [MW Communications] - The annual Clergy Convocation of the Diocese of the Midwest will be held August 23-25 at the Carmelite Retreat Center here. The change from its usual pre-Great Lent time is to accommodate for the time line of the Episcopal Selection Committee (read that here). The Diocesan Council will approve a list of no more than three candidates at is regular meeting in June in Chicago. 

"The change in the time of the convocation will allow for the approved candidates to be present at our Clergy Convocation, giving a tremendous opportunity to our clergy to worship with and  get to know each candidate better," said Fr John Zdinak, Chancellor.

Further information on the Clergy Convocation will be forthcoming.
