The Diocesan Dialogue
Current Issue
May 2008
Close-up with the Presiding Bishop
A half dozen press visits, being received by the LDS Church First
Presidency, lunches, speeches, conference sessions, services, receptions,
and photo opportunities made up a minute-by-minute schedule for the
Presiding Bishop.
Bishop Jefferts Schori tells reporter Carrie Moore at 9:00 that we
must embrace diversity. The Deseret Morning News reporter
interviews her for the next half hour.

With camera in hand, the Most Rev. Katharine Jefferts
Schori's
husband, Richard Schori, accompanied her. He has shared his photographs
with the Dialogue, giving a close-up look of a leader seldom seen by
those not in the meetings or official gatherings. It is a special look
at one of the most dynamic religious leaders in the United States. Photographers
Judy Kiel and Willy Bautner joined your editor of the Dialogue in also
capturing hundreds of photos. Thirteen-year-old Helena Duncan also
shot photos for an article from the youth perspective.
Jerry Johnson shot photos of the St. Mark's service and kindly
shared one of our cover page photos.
Bishop Jefferts Schori and Bishop Irish spend 45 minutes with the Deseret
Morning News editorial board. Jefferts Schori responds to a question
about division within the church with the statement that people used
to kill over the question of using candles in the service. She hopes
today's issues of division will someday be regarded in the same
way as the old candle issue.

Therefore, we give you almost
a minute by minute view of the Presiding Bishop as she met, preached,
conducted sessions, lunched, and responded to questions for hours at
a time.
