    Trustees of the Episcopal Church CorporationElect 1 Cleric and 1 Lay for a 3-year term.

    Description of duties: The Episcopal Church Corpo-ration in West Texas holds title to the permanent funds and other property belonging to the diocese. It has authority to receive bequests and donations, and to sell or mortgage property to which it holds title. As such, Trustees should have an understanding of/interest in financial, real estate, and property matters. The Trust-ees work with the Bishop on designating certain re-stricted funds as they are needed in ministry. There is usually monthly contact needed with the Trustees, and a substantial amount of the Trustees business histori-cally was done via telephone and mail, then confirmed at their quarterly meetings. Today, most business is done electronically, via email.
