Part of the redesign of the Via Media USA Web site is the introduction of blog. The immediate rationale for adding a blog is to facilitate reporting and commentary by members of Via Media groups who will be attending the 2009 General Convention in Anaheim, California. We hope, however, that the blog will have enduring utility as a place where Episcopalians from different dioceses can discuss issues of mutual concern regarding the theology, polity, mission, worship, and health of The Episcopal Church.
