Learn about St. Monica’s Vestry
Working with the priest, the Vestry is responsible for the continuing management of the Parish. Members consist of a Senior and Junior Warden and others who serve three-year terms. Youth representatives, over the age of 16, can serve a one-year term as a voting members. Subsequently, a clerk and a treasurer are appointed, but need not be voting members of the vestry.
The Vestry meets monthly to discuss finances, property matters, and lay programs of the parish. They are accountable to the congregation and are always available to discuss issues and answer questions. Various committees may be appointed and are therefore accountable solely to the vestry. These committees are responsible for such things as property, stewardship, new member ministry, finance, Christian Education, liturgy and communications.
The Vestry encourages members of the congregation to attend meetings which occur on the third Sunday of every month. Vestry members currently serving are listed below. There is an open forum at the beginning of each Vestry Meeting in which you may address the Vestry. Minutes for Vestry meetings can be found posted in the narthex.
