Convocations

The diocese is divided into four geographic regions, called convocations, and every church of the diocese is a member of one of these convocations. Each convocation has a dean – a clergyperson appointed by the bishop – as well as convocation officers, which can vary based on convocation bylaws.

The clergy of the convocation, plus lay delegates from convocations churches, make up the convocation board, which is required by canon to meet at least three times a year.
