Dear readers, for awhile it looked as if live blogging of the bishop election would not happen due to Technological Misunderstandings. However, the intrepid Diocesan Communications Commission has figured out a brilliant plan that involves the indomitable Desert Spirit editor Hallie Murphy, a hotel room away from the convention floor, a wireless connection, and a cell phone. All is right with the world!
The convention will open with Holy Eucharist at 10:00 am on Friday followed by instructions to the delegates and the casting of the first ballot. The results of each ballot will be posted after each candidate has been contacted and notified of their standing in the voting. There is no way to predict what time the voting will begin and how many ballots will be required, so you might want to check in periodically if you are curious about how the vote is proceeding.
The name of the next bishop of Nevada will be posted here after he or she has been formally notified. Stay tuned, and please keep the delegates, candidates, and their families in your prayers.

Good Morning Reverend Reporter. It is 10:30 AM on the East Coast and the Diocese of Nevada, all its people, and the six candidates are in the prayers of the community of Virginia Theological Seminary.
God's grace & peace be with you.

Good morning.
Notice goes out this morning to all on the San Joaquin intranet to be in prayer during this election day. God bless you in finding a faithful priest to be your bishop.
And nice job on separating out comments by issue (youth, evangelism, etc). Very helpful.
