Winston-Salem Convocation Report: Annual Meeting 2020

Convocation co-chairs Elnora Gore and Gertrude Murchison serve on the Executive Board representing nine cities. Board meetings are held via Zoom.

ECW Chapters, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, have not carried out many of their planned outreach ministries.

The Episcopal Church Women of Trinity Church are involved in many different ministries. One is Lyn’s Medical Loan Closet. Named for their former priest, Lyn Stabler-Tippett, who fought a long, hard battle with cancer, the Loan Closet loans durable medical equipment to residents of Surry County and surrounding areas. There is no cost to the client.

This ministry was initiated with a loan of equipment from the medical loan closet at St. James Episcopal Church in Hickory, NC. Trinity operates the loan closet on Tuesdays and volunteers from two other churches, St. Andrew Lutheran and Grace Moravian Church, have opened it on Thursdays.
