Description[?]:
| The Church of Luthori in Malivia is the only Bishopal church in Malivia recognized by the Archbishop of Oalopo and the Church of Luthori. Low-church and evangelical, it has members from all ethnic and cultural communities in the nation. It practices a loose form of episcopal polity and offers no metropolitan leadership, instead giving the General Superintendent of the Synod only limited and mostly ceremonial role. Instead, power and decision making is given almost exclusively to the heads of the dioceses/districts. Due to anti-Patriarchal sentiments, dioceses are called districts and bishops are known as superintendents. The Synod meets once a year for a week and only during this time does the General Superintendent exercise his administrative power. The General Superintendent is the superintendent with seniority (who has served the longest in his role). When a vacancy occurs, Superintendents are nominated, voted on and appointed by the Synod. The Synod consists of all superintendents, active and retired, two clergy delegates from each district chosen by the Superintendent and two lay delegates, chosen by the clergy delegates. General Superintendent of the Synod: The Most Rev. Benjamin Chapel Superintendent of Bhulkhandra: The Most Rev. Benjamin Chapel Superintendent of Dendhadrash: The Rt. Rev. Dr. Nathaniel Hampshire Superintendent of Idhaghra: The Rt. Rev. Horatio Uitti Superintendent of Washebar: The Rt. Rev. Victor Iohannes Patel Superintendent of Walkaunar: The Rt. Rev.
