Board Bytes
Welcome to this new feature in our newsletters that gives our CBWC family a little more insight into the work of the CBWC Board. Though some of the Board's work is either too mundane or sensitive to report in these newsletters, you can anticipate hearing updates of our work many times throughout the year.
The CBWC Board met online in late January, saving us from unpredictable winter travel. At that meeting, we approved changes to the Ministerial Protocol Manual (MPM) to recommend at the CBWC's 2026 online Annual Business Meeting. We also heard an extended report from the President and the Board Chair of Carey and received our usual variety of reports from ministry partners and others.
In February, our board called a special meeting to accomplish a special task: voting to extend a call to our new Executive Minister! We give thanks to God for the good news that Rev. Dr. Clint Mix will begin his ministry among us on May 1, 2026, allowing some valuable overlap with Rob Ogilvie. Many thanks to those involved in the search committee for their extensive work.
Our next CBWC board meetings will occur at the Calgary office in late April. Among other things, the board will be preparing to recommend various business items for the 2026 online Annual Business Meeting. It will also be our last board meeting with Rob Ogilvie, whom we will honour for his faithful work among us.
Our board covets your prayers as we seek to govern wisely in the matters you have entrusted us with.
