Administrative history
The position of Conference Minister, entitled Presbytery Officer prior to 1991-1992, for the Prince Rupert Presbytery was established in the early 1970s and still exists. This position continued the work of former Superintendents of Home Missions in providing support, leadership and administration, particularly in the areas of most concern for First Nations. The fonds primarily covers the tenure of three individuals who occupied this position between 1980 and 2006: Clinton (Clint) Howard, Gordon Pokorny and Charlotte Sullivan. Prior to Clint Howard’s appointment, the position of Presbytery Officer was held by Robert (Bob) Scales from 1973-1978 , and then half-time by George Affleck during 1979-1980. During Clint Howard’s tenure (1980-1986) and Gordon Pokorny’s (1986-1992), the Presbytery Officer’s responsibilities included acting as a consultant to the Presbytery and congregations and personnel within the Presbytery, program development and planning, pastoral relations, pastoral care to ministers, supporting the work of the Division of Mission in Canada through Mission Support Grants, and church development. In 1993, Charlotte Sullivan, who was a hereditary chief among the Gitxsan, succeeded Gordon as Conference Minister, a position she would hold until her death in 2006. In addition to already established roles, Charlotte advised the United Church’s national Residential Schools Steering Committee and provided leadership in native circles.
