Vestry & Officers

The vestry is the legal representative of the parish with regard to all matters pertaining to its corporate property.  Vestry members are elected at the annual parish meeting. The presiding officer of the vestry is the rector. There are usually two wardens, the senior warden and the junior warden.

The basic responsibilities of the vestry are to help define and articulate the mission of the congregation; to support the church's mission by word and deed; to ensure effective organization and planning; to manage resources and finances; and (when necessary) to select the next rector.
