The Parish Council consists of permanent members and elected members. The Parish Council of our Cathedral is headed by His Grace Irenei Bishop of London and Western Europe.
The other members of the Parish Council are the Deputy Rector, the Clergy, the Ktitors, the Churchwarden, the Treasurer, the Senior Sister, the Church Choir Director and several others.
Parishioners may be elected to the Parish Council at an Annual Parish Meeting. A parishioner, who regularly confesses and partakes of the Holy Communion, pays an annual membership fee, is active in the life of the parish and has organisational skills, can be elected a member of the Parish Council.
