Read about Piedmont Deanery
Piedmont Deanery - The purpose of a Deanery is to improve communications and to provide more opportunities for mutual support and planing. Deanery normally meets twice a year or more for worship, study and fellowship. Each Deanery Chair serves on the ECW Diocesan Board. She plans deanery meetings and special projects. Contact her and offer your help. Be active in the planning process.
