  • ELECTIONS for GENERAL SYNOD Under the Constitution of The
    Revised: November 14, 2011 ELECTIONS FOR GENERAL SYNOD Under the Constitution of the Diocese of Toronto and the Constitution of the General Synod, Synod is required to elect nine clergy and nine lay members to serve as members of General Synod. The next General Synod meeting will be held from July 3 to 7, 2013 in Ottawa, Ontario. The General Synod of the Anglican Church of Canada is the church’s chief governing and legislative body. It is made up of members from every diocese and all three orders (lay people, priests, and bishops) from across the country. It meets every three years during which members exchange information, set policy for the Church and pass resolutions and canons. In years when the General Synod does not meet, the Church is governed by the Council of General Synod (CoGS), effectively a smaller subcommittee with a similar mandate and similar powers. This year, nominees for General Synod were asked to submit approximately fifty words about their involvement at the diocesan, parish and community level. The following are the biographies submitted by the nominees. GENERAL SYNOD – Nine Clerical Members to be elected o The Rev. Jenny Andison – St. Paul, Bloor Street - Jenny was ordained in 1997 and first served in a multi-point parish in the Diocese of Ontario. She then spent a year at St. Alban's Church in Tokyo and two years at St. Timothy, Agincourt. She then moved, with her husband Tim, to London, England for five years where she served as Associate Vicar at St. James, Clerkenwell, a church reboot in the heart of the city.
