The Transition Process is overseen by Bishops Scanlan and Nichols. The Standing Committees of each diocese will appoint a Transition Committee to ensure that the various aspects of the Convention mandate to reunify as one diocese are well coordinated as we move toward actual reunification on January 1, 2026. The Transition Committee will help facilitate communication with leadership bodies and collaboration among Working Groups by clarifying the descriptions and time frames for each, encouraging collaboration when there is overlap or intersection in their work, and providing means by which information is channeled to the appropriate diocesan bodies. Members of the Working Groups will be appointed by the Transition Committee.
