VESTRY

What is the vestry?
In short, the Vestry guides and supports the people. While "Vestry" is an old English term, its value is essential to the life of any Episcopal parish. Meeting once a month and around a meal, our Vestry makes decisions about resources and finances, always leading as followers of Jesus. Everyone is invited to attend a Vestry meeting. Want to know more? ​
