The first meeting of the newly elected Standing Committee of the Anglican Fellowship of the Southwest (AFSW) took place Thursday, May 26. Nine Anglican churches in New Mexico and West Texas agreed by votes of their respective Vestries to apply to the Anglican Church in North America's Provincial Council to become a Diocese-in-Formation (DIF). The DIF's proposed name is the Anglican Diocese of the Southwest (Diocese-in-Formation.)
At the first Synod meeting of the Anglican Fellowship of the Southwest, held at Christ the King Anglican Church, Albuquerque, NM on May 13-14, a constitution was adopted for the DIF. Along with the election of a Standing Committee, Bishop Win Mott was unanimously nominated by the Synod to serve as Vicar General, subject to the approval of Archbishop Duncan and the Provincial Council. These are exciting times for Anglicans in the American Southwest.
