Pee Dee-Waccamaw Deanery Gathers for Convocation

On Saturday, September 16, 2023, church representatives from the Pee Dee-Waccamaw Deanery gathered at St. David’s Episcopal Church in Cheraw for a Convocation. A “Convocation” is defined as a group of people assembled for a special purpose — mostly ecclesiastical or academic. The Very Reverend Wilmot T. Merchant II, the dean of the Pee Dee-Waccamaw Deanery, called the Convocation, and Bishop Ruth Woodliff-Stanley joined them for a day of prayer, celebration, and fellowship.
