The Diocese of Long Island held its 132nd diocesan convention Nov. 13-14 in Huntington, N.Y. Delegates debated issues in the spirit of the convention theme, "Unity in Diversity."

Emmanuel Church, Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, was granted admission as a parish, and the rector and vestry received a rousing greeting. Delegates heard reports on the Lambeth Conference from the Rt. Rev. Orris G. Walker, Jr., Bishop of Long Island, on Camp DeWolfe by the Rev. Churchill Pinder, and on the youth ministries program by Charles Fawcett.
