Following a short annual meeting, with reports and elections, Katie Sherrod will talk about some of the facets of her many years of work and service to the Episcopal Church. Sherrod is an award-winning journalist, author of three books and several pioneering videos on LGBTQ+ members of Episcopal Church and the Anglican Communion. Honored multiple times by both the state of Texas and the Episcopal Church, Sherrod has long been an advocate for justice, and a critic of those who abuse power. Sherrod and her husband, the late Rev. Gayland Poole, were voices for the Episcopal Church in the struggle against schism in the Fort Worth area. She was active in the formation of Fort Worth Via Media, serving as the Director of Communication for the Diocese of North Texas until its merger with the Diocese of Texas in 2022. A six-time deputy to General Convention and Executive Council Member, Sherrod has served on numerous General Convention committees including those on Sexism and on Sexual Assault. A grandmother, pet lover, gardener, blogger, and commentator, she remains active in justice causes, although officially retired.
