As mandated in General Convention 2009 Resolution A096, The Episcopal Church Standing Commission on Liturgy and Music (SCLM) is soliciting feedback about the book, currently in trial use.

The Rev. Ruth Meyers, Ph.D., Hodges-Haynes Professor of Liturgics at Church Divinity School of the Pacific and SCLM Chair, explained that the simplified system “is quicker, easier to use, and allows people to fill out comments without having to scroll through the entire calendar listing.”

The online survey is available at https://www.psychdata.com/s.asp?SID=139265

The online survey will be available through June 30, 2011.

After compiling the data derived from the survey, SCLM will prepare a comprehensive report on the usage and people”s experiences with Holy Women, Holy Men for the 77th General Convention in 2012 in Indianapolis, IN. As directed by Resolution A096, the report will include recommendations for revisions to the calendar as well as the collects and lessons approved in 2009.
