[Episcopal Church Office of Public Affairs press release] There is still time to submit a video to the Episcopal Church Task Force on the Study of Marriage.

The videos should focus on the topic: Give us your first name and tell a one minute story about your relationship or one you know well in which you have seen the image of God.

The videos should be sent to taskforceonmarriage@gmail.com. 

These videos will be used as part of upcoming presentations and reports to the House of Bishops and the House of Deputies, as well as the Task Force’s report for General Convention 2015.

Task Force member the Rev. Canon W. (Will) H. Mebane, Jr., Diocese of Ohio, previously noted, “The videos don’t need to be professionally recorded – feel free to use a Smartphone or flip cam.”

He added, “Submission of videos is just one method Episcopalians have to submit their thoughts to the Task Force. Traditional written surveys will be distributed and individuals are encouraged to respond to questions that will also be posted on the group’s Facebook page.”
