Our Executive Committee

The Executive Committee is comprised of the Bishop and twelve members of the House of Delegates who are elected to lead our congregations in a Godly community of mutual support and cooperation. The Executive Committee is the executive arm of our House of Delegates; it acts under authority delegated to it by the House of Delegates and is accountable to the House of Delegates for its management of the affairs of the Diocese.

The Executive Committee meets approximately monthly, though the Bishop, officers, and many others are actively managing the Diocese's affairs between meetings.

Unity is fostered person-to-person, when people come together to work together and minister together. Excepting certain clergy matters, none of the members of the Executive Committee serve on any of our committees or task groups, since the work of the Executive Committee is to envision and to manage our overall progress.

The Executive Committee appoints the chairpersons and the individual members of our various standing committees and ad hoc task groups, insuring thereby that ownership among our member congregations is truly shared.

The members of the Executive Committee are the directors of our corporation, the Diocese of Western Anglican Congregations, a California religious nonprofit corporation. They elect its officers. The Bishop is Chairman/Chief Executive Officer and a lay person is President/Chief Administrative Officer of corporation.

The current members of the Executive Committee are:
