The International Board is the guardian of the SOMA vision. The International Board comprises Anglican Renewal leaders drawn from nine nations together with the National Directors. The International Patron is Most Revd Justin Badi of South Sudan. The new Chair is Reverend Andrew Allen-Johns of New Zealand.
The Board meets every month for an online share and prayer time, and in person every 18 month and has appointed an Executive group to act as a “standing committee” between meetings. This group comprises the chairman, secretary, treasurer and three representatives of the national directors. The national directors form a collegiate leadership in planning and carrying out SOMA’s ministry globally.
As well as Australia, there are national SOMA bodies in the United Kingdom, the USA, Ireland, South Africa and New Zealand. Each national SOMA body has its own board or council which provides a covering and support for the National Director, and for Australia an Executive Office, whom they appoint. These boards meet at regular intervals and also appoint executives to act on their behalf.
