The vestry works in tandem with the rector and other clergy to set the vision and conduct the affairs of the church. All Episcopal parishes operate around this crucial partnership between lay and ordained leaders.
Vestry members are elected at the annual parish meeting for a term of three years, during which they gather for regular vestry meetings and work in committees on all areas of the life of the parish -- from finance to outreach to safety.
Each vestry meeting begins with a short service of Holy Communion and the spirit of our shared calling as Christians imbues all that we do.
