Vestry
The Vestry is the lay governing body of the parish consisting of seven persons elected by the congregation at the Annual Parish Meeting currently in January of each year. Officers are Senior and Junior Wardens, Registrar and Treasurer. The Senior Warden is the Rector's warden, and is chosen by the Rector. The remaining officers are chosen by the vestry from among the members of the vestry or the congregation at large.
Vestry members normally serve a three year term. Members of the Vestry must be Members in Good Standing of the parish. The Vestry is responsible for the financial and administrative business of the parish. The two Wardens act as executive officers and spokespersons for the Committee and should be contacted if the priest cannot be reached for an emergency.
Vestry Meetings
Meetings are typically the second Wednesday of each month, from 5:15-7:15pm, in the Vestry Room. Unless otherwise noted, all meetings are open to members of the congregation. Anyone can attend a vestry meeting. Upon rare occasions, non-vestry members may be asked to leave the room when matters of personal privacy may be discussed, but otherwise all topics are open. They typically include topics such as financial reports, stewardship, properties updates, and personnel.
