Chief Justice Zaila McCalla, has been appointed the new Chancellor of the Anglican Diocese of Jamaica and The Cayman Islands.
She succeeds former Chief Justice Lensley Wolfe, who demitted office earlier this year after serving for 18 years.
McCalla’s appointment, which was announced by the Bishop of Jamaica and the Cayman Islands, Reverend Dr. Howard Gregory, became effective on July 1.
Bishop Gregory explained that under the laws of the Church, the Chancellor must be a communicant member of the Anglican Church, with legal training.
As Chancellor, she will automatically become a member of the Diocesan Council which is the Standing Committee of the Synod – the highest body in the Church.
She will also serve on the Diocesan Financial Board and as a member of Synod.
