Vestry, Clerk/Secretary, and Treasurer
The Vestry is a group of church members who act on behalf of the church as a corporate entity. In other words, they act as a committee to see to the health of the church in worldly terms, by keeping the bills paid, the building cared for, and making sure that the needs of the congregation are being addressed.
Vestry member elections are held annually. Our announcements are given on Sundays by the vestry person of the day. Our vestry meets the third Sunday each month immediately following the service.
If you have questions about the church, ideas for things that you’d like to see, or concerns, please send the wardens an email or give them a call at their numbers below.
During in-person services, look for our vestry members—they will be wearing their name tags—and say hello or place a note in their mailbox located in the Bell Tower area. Staying engaged keeps our church alive and healthy.
