For additional assistance, we are providing a link to the video workshop Legislation & Resolutions 101 conducted by the Chancellor for the Episcopal Church in Colorado Lawrence Hitt, II and the former Chairperson for Resolutions and Legislation, the Rev.

Convention Land Acknowledgement
“Welcome to The Episcopal Church in Colorado’s 138th Annual Convention. As we prepare for what the Spirit has for us this weekend, we take a moment to acknowledge that the land on which we live and gather is the traditional territory of the Arapaho, Cheyenne, and Ute Nations. We recognize the Indigenous people who once lived on this land and support the resilience and strength of their descendants living among us today.
We also acknowledge our complicity in the egregious acts of colonization, boarding schools, and genocide that have caused lasting intergenerational trauma. We commit to learn the truth of the past and present, to reckon with our role in the harms caused, and to stand in solidarity with our Indigenous kin as we seek an equitable future together.”
Bishop Kym Lucas
