The San Fernando Valley chapter is blessed with a regular rotation of ordained individuals to preside at liturgy. We believe that ordination should not be confined to hetero-normative, cis-gender males:

Rev. Laura Okazaki is a chapter member and also of Dignity Los Angeles.

Rev. Nori Kieran-Meredith is a chapter member and a Roman Catholic Women Priest.

Rev. Peter Canavan is a former Franciscan and an active therapist in Long Beach.

Rt. Rev. Dylan Littlefield is a chapter member and a Franciscan Friar with the Companions of Francis.  Bishop Dylan serves at the Chapel of St. Maximilian Kolbe, ministering in addiction and recovery, and is the shepherd of the Diocese of the Pacific in the Old Catholic Union of the West: https://dioceseofthepacific.org/

Rev. Todd Scull, OSB is a chapter member and pastor of the Old Catholic parish of St. Caecilia in Glendale.  (You can visit their Facebook page). He is a member of the Benedictine Order and Todd's blog is Catholic Preacher. (And LA Pipe Smoker on YouTube!) 

Rev. Mr. Jim Cummings is a chapter member and assists as DEACON at special liturgies. He is the liturgical coordinator, social media coordinator & webmaster, assistant sacristan, and occasional cantor for DSFV. He provides spiritual direction and religious education opportunities for the chapter so that our members gain faith enrichment. He'll preside sometimes at member-led liturgies.

Other "guest" priestly presiders are occasionally scheduled.

 

A note about Member-led "Liturgy of the Word with Communion" Once a month, usually on the final weekend of the month, members of the chapter will preside at liturgy in the absence of a priest.
