Fr. Don Chambers Reappointed General Secretary of the AEC
The Antilles Episcopal Conference (AEC) has announced the reappointment of Rev. Fr.
Donald Chambers as General Secretary of the Conference for the period November 2025 to
November 2026.
In a release dated June 9, 2025 the AEC confirmed that this decision was taken during the recent plenary meeting of the bishops of the AEC and “reflects the Conference’s commitment to continuity and stability in its service to the Church across the Caribbean.”
The release went on to note that the decision to reappoint Fr. Chambers on a yearly basis will enable the Conference to “ensure a smooth and deliberate transition in leadership.” In this regard, the AEC has announced the establishment of a special committee, which is tasked with overseeing the process of identifying and appointing a new General Secretary who will assume the role upon the conclusion of Fr. Chambers’ extended term.
Fr. Donald Chambers was ordained priest June 28, 1992 in the Archdiocese of Kingston, and served in several capacities before his appointment as General Secretary of the AEC in 2018. The bishops of the Antilles expressed their deep gratitude to Fr. Chambers for his ongoing dedication, capable leadership, and faithful service to the Conference and to the mission of the Church in our region.
