President Linda C. Gant is from the New England Conference, and was elected July 27, 2024. Her passion for the Lay Organization led her to work not only on the local level but also on the conference level as Recording Secretary, First Vice President, and President of the New England Conference Lay Organization before being elected to hold the distinguished position of President of the First Episcopal District Lay Organization.  She takes her work seriously and truly believes this is the calling God has placed on her life.
