The Executive Council carries on the work of the Diocesan Convention when the Convention is not in session. It consists of nine at-large members, one member from each of the five deaneries and various ex-officio members (see the chart below).
Of the nine at-large members, three are clergy and six are lay. The term of the elected members is three years, with one clergy and one lay member being elected at each annual meeting of the Diocesan Convention.
