About Diocesan Convention

The annual convention of the Episcopal Diocese of East Tennessee is the legislative body for the Diocese. Each year, parishes across East Tennessee send delegations to convention to consider resolutions, elect diocesan leadership, hear reports from diocesan committees and other working groups, pass the annual diocesan budget, and find inspiration and training from an array of in-person and online affinity groups and workshops.

The convention, meeting in early February of each year, takes place on the campus of the Episcopal School of Knoxville with worship taking place either at a local parish or on the school campus.

Convention has also included some form of activity for youth and young adults.
