Who We Are
One of a number
of geographically defined areas within the Diocese of Massachusetts,
the Cape & Islands Deanery comprises congregations from Plymouth,
Buzzard's Bay and Wareham, Cape Cod, and from Martha's Vineyard
and Nantucket Islands. We are part of the Episcopal Church.
Our Deanery has an
Executive Council and an Assembly with delegates from each
congregation. We meet at least quarterly, rotating our assemblies
among our local congregations.

Congregational Development Grant We are grateful for the
Congregational Development Grant we were awarded by the Diocese
to help promote collaboration and communication among the parishes
in our Deanery.

Practical Eco-StewardshipThe Cape and Islands Deanery is one of a number of
geographically defined areas within the Episcopal Diocese of Massachusetts
based on watersheds, reinforcing the symbolism of baptism and the interconnectedness
of our lives. Grace Church on Martha’s Vineyard has been very active in researching
and purchasing green products in their parish, and, in May 2009, introduced
the Deanery to programs they have in place. As a result of that program, the
deanery decided to explore eco-stewardship programs, including banding together
to make bulk purchases of environmentally sensitive products.

Deanery Event Calendar We offer an online calendar for use by our parishes and deanery delegates. You may enter an event's details on our web site, and - after approval from one of our site maintainers (to prevent spam entries) - it will be available on our public calendar for all visitors to see. |
Training and Classes Part of our goal for this online community is offering opportunities for discussions among folks in our parishes. Another goal is to provide training and support to our parishes in the use of websites and software. Between the 16 parishes and three summer chapels in our deanery, we have a lot of experience and expertise. Training can be online in our meeting room or in-person hosted by one of our parishes. |
