If your event could appeal to people in other dioceses as well, you can also post a listing on the Episcopal Digital Network’s Event Board.

View the diocesan job board

Post a job or volunteer opportunity on the job board

Tips for posting a job:

• In the “Location” field, put a street address, so the person viewing the job can click on it and see a map.
• If you are having trouble attaching an image, email it to ministry.support@edotn.org, and Tracie will add the image. That seems to be a glitch in the program for now.
• Once you submit, it will first go to the web admin for approval, so you won’t see it immediately.

You can also post a job in the classified section of the Episcopal Digital Network site:

• Official Acts Form to record the names of those to be baptized, confirmed, received. Download as a Word doc or as a PDF.
• Bishop Supply or Visitation Form – Download as a Word doc or as a PDF.
