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. The 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. The Vestry meets on the
third Tuesday of the month at 7:00 p.m. Unless
otherwise noted, all meetings are open to members of the congregation.
Vestry members serve as liaisons to the following parish standing
