Julia Ayala Harris
It has been my honor to serve as your 34th president of the House of Deputies. Since 2022, grounded in prayer, service, and faith in Jesus, I have led with a commitment to truth-telling, transparency, and accountability, providing strong, stable leadership amidst challenging times. I feel called to continue this work as we enter this next season of transition. My deep knowledge and love of Episcopal polity and governance, with my 25+ years in the nonprofit sector and ongoing doctoral studies, offer a breadth of experience and depth of perspective on the challenges facing our church today. I'm grateful for the trust bestowed in me as a deputy from the Diocese of Oklahoma, vice-chair of the Executive Council, and vice-president of the Domestic and Foreign Missionary Society. It would be my honor to continue my service as president, to provide stability during this crucial season ahead of us, and to continue to lead this body to bear witness to the transformative love of Christ
