The Vestry at St. Paul's Episcopal Church

 

The Vestry of St. Paul's Episcopal Church functions as our "Board of Directors", overseeing the business and finances of the parish, including preparation and approval of the annual budget, maintenance of the parish buildings and grounds, and development and implementation of both programs and ministry efforts for the benefit of the parish family of St. Paul's.

 

Each year in January at the Annual Meeting, the congregation elects four new members for three-year terms. The Senior Warden, who is elected by the congregation for a three-year term, serves as the "Clergy's Warden" and Chief Financial Officer of the parish. The Junior Warden, the "People's Warden", is elected by the vestry from those serving the final year of their elected term, and has the responsibility of oversight of buildings and grounds.

 

Each Vestry member is assigned an area of responsibility for a ministry or program within the parish and represents these groups to the Vestry at the monthly meetings, normally scheduled on the first (prayer and bible study) and third (business meeting) Mondays of the month at 6:00 p.m. in the Wardens' Room.

 

Every Vestry meeting opens and closes with prayer, and at the first meeting of each quarter, the members corporately receive Holy Communion in the Chapel.
