The 11th Investiture of New Members was celebrated within the context of Morning Prayer at the Massey Theatre in New Westminster, November 5, 2022, 10:30am following a four year hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Investiture is a biennial event.   

For 2022, forty-four Parish Nominees and ten Bishop's Appointees accepted the diocesan honour. Forty-six of the fifty-four were in attendance in person at the event to be invested. One member was invested posthumously and the other seven will be invested at their parishes at a later date.
