In this diocese I served as an acolyte, lector and Senior Warden at St. Bedes. At St. Paul\u2019s Oakland I have been on Vestry, and served a Deanery delegate, Junior Warden, Stewardship chair, chaired the search committee for a new music director, usher, lector, sub-deacon, and co-chaired the strategic planning committee.<\/p>\n<h3><span>Major activities beyond diocese<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>My activities outside church mirror my interests with three additions. I am very active in my fraternity, the oldest African American group of accomplished Black men. We have an extensive mentoring program for at risk young black men. I serve and have served in a number of leadership positions that support that effort. Second, I am a book editor. Third, I play golf, or as any golfer will tell you, I try to play it.<\/p>\n<h3><span>In my opinion the major issues facing the church today are<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Remaining relevant and outreach to young people are continuing issues for this and all churches. But I see moral leadership as our major challenge\/opportunity. We live in a broken country. Our very spirit is under attack. An Anglican Bishop, Desmond Tutu, led a broken country, South Africa back from the brink. Tutu exhorted Blacks and Whites, to understand and appreciate each other\u2019s humanity. Through this they found truth and eventually reconciliation. Our church has the opportunity\/responsibility to lead a moral revival here; individually and\/or as part of a collective. As followers of the \u201cWay\u201d, our faith calls us to action.<\/p>\n<h3><span>Why are you running for this position?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>I have extensive experience in governance, communications and financial management of for profit and not for profit organizations. I am running to use my experience to serve Christ, our Church, and our Diocese. We will have a new Bishop soon. I see myself supporting that person as they transition to this complex undertaking and providing advice and council to the Standing committee. In addition I hope to be a positive voice to help our Church heal our wounded world.<\/p>\n<p><span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.21.0&#8243; _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb text_font=\u00bb|700|on||||||\u00bb text_font_size=\u00bb19px\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\" style=\"text-align: right;\"><span>Nominated by Carolyn Bolton<br \/>St. Paul&#8217;s, Oakland<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=\u00bb#330072&#8243; divider_weight=\u00bb5px\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.21.0&#8243; _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb width=\u00bb25%\u00bb module_alignment=\u00bbcenter\u00bb custom_margin=\u00bb||||false|false\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_team_member name=\u00bbSteven Depont-Kalani \u00bb image_url=\u00bbhttps:\/\/www.diocalconvention.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/img_0541.jpeg.jpg\u00bb module_id=\u00bbStevenD\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.21.0&#8243; _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb header_level=\u00bbh2&#8243; header_font=\u00bb|800|||||||\u00bb body_font_size=\u00bb20px\u00bb border_radii_image=\u00bbon|25px|25px|25px|25px\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]<\/p>\n<p><span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Episcopal Church St. Mary the Virgin<\/p>\n<p><span>San Francisco Deanery<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_team_member][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.21.0&#8243; _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb text_font_size=\u00bb19px\u00bb header_3_font=\u00bb|700|||||||\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]<\/p>\n<h3><span>Interests<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Politics, tennis, gardening, parks and recreation, dogs, and travel<\/p>\n<h3><span>Professional associations<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>I am a member of the Parks and Recreation Open Space Advisory Committee (PROSAC), the Outer Mission Merchants and Residents Association (OMMRA), McLaren Collaborative, the Excelsior Collaborative, past co-chair of the vehicle Triage Center at Balboa Park BART Station, Mission Inn Community Group (housing for the homeless disadvantaged), board member of Life Frames, Inc.

I bring to this work my passion for our common ministry, expanding our diversity as a body, cultivating sound democratic governance, working together to forge new vision for the local and wider Church, and sustaining a deep love for the Gospel of Jesus Christ and our shared traditions. This year, we face the challenge of regathering in person electing a new bishop.

We are experiencing greater levels of discord and divergence (political, economic and theological) than before. The challenge for TEC is to ensure for those seeking a relationship with God that we make certain our Church welcomes all. Related, we see discriminatory practices evident in ordination and membership in other churches that impacts broader views of religion. To remain as vital parts of our communities, our churches need to identify area to implement God&#8217;s community through support of local needs.<\/p>\n<h3><span>Why are you running for this position?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>I want to continue deepening my involvement in the Diocese and helping support our congregations. We are faced with the continued challenges and trends that have emerged from the Pandemic, and the strains on our congregations. These may not ease, and I hope I can support our Diocese by continuing our path to increased efficiency of resources provided to clergy and congregations by the Diocese, and continue to look for areas to ease the financial burden on our congregations. I believe my professional background and work with organizations on governance and financial issues will assist me in accomplishing this.<\/p>\n<p><span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=\u00bb4.21.0&#8243; _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb text_font=\u00bb|700|on||||||\u00bb text_font_size=\u00bb19px\u00bb custom_margin=\u00bb||2px|||\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb]<\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\" style=\"text-align: right;\"><span>\u00a0Nominated by<span class=\"name\"> Chip Larrimore<\/span><br \/>Christ Church, Sausalito<br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_icon font_icon=\u00bb&#x42;||divi||400&#8243; url=\u00bb#up\u00bb _builder_version=\u00bb4.21.0&#8243; _module_preset=\u00bbdefault\u00bb custom_margin=\u00bb-10px||-10px||false|false\u00bb custom_padding=\u00bb0px||0px||false|false\u00bb global_colors_info=\u00bb{}\u00bb][\/et_pb_icon][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2023 Nominee Biographies &nbsp;Standing CommitteeExecutive CouncilSecretary of the ConventionTreasurer of the DioceseNominee&#8217;s and Positions Click on name of the nominee to be taken to thier biography.Standing Committee Elect: 2 \u2014 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":2840,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2097","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"featured_image_src":null,"featured_image_src_square":null,"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.diocalconvention.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2097","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.diocalconvention.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.diocalconvention.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.diocalconvention.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.diocalconvention.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2097"}],"version-history":[{"count":17,"href":"https:\/\/www.diocalconvention.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2097\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2832,"href":"https:\/\/www.diocalconvention.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2097\/revisions\/2832"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.diocalconvention.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2840"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.diocalconvention.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2097"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
