Proposed schedule for Discernment Committee

We never had all these meetings. And this is all the information I got about them. And there was this whole other part where the committee members were supposed to have lunch with me and conduct further conversations., that I never had, and only learned about from one of the members the Sunday before the meeting where we canceled the rest of the meetings. Received November 20, 2011.
