Vestry

The vestry is composed of the rector, wardens, and vestry members from the parish. The vestry oversees the finances of the parish, assists the rector in conducting the business of the parish, tends to the maintenance and renovations for the church buildings, and acts as the liaison to all the ministries within the church. The wardens and vestry are the official representatives of the parish in the absence of a rector. St. Mary’s has 12 lay people elected to serve for staggered three-year terms. Vestry members must be members of the church, communicants in good standing and confirmed or received into the Episcopal Church. Elections are held annually.
