New members have been elected to serve on the executive of the Belize Council of Churches. 

At its bi-annual general meeting held last week, the group chose Reverent Roosevelt Papouloute as its new president replacing Canon LeRoy Flowers.

The vice president is now Bishop Philip Wright.  Secretary is Karen Taylor while Reverent Christopher Chanucy is the treasurer. 

Ordinary members are Bishop Dorrick Wright, Major Joliker Leandre and Pastor Ernest Betson.

According to a release from the Belize Council of Churches, the general assembly also adopted a new constitution.

The release ends by saying that the new executive reaffirmed its commitment to the Prophetic role of the church and will seek to meaningfully engage government and civil society in advancing the welfare of the Belizean society to and for the glory of God.
