VESTRY 

Saint Paul's vestry, the governing body of the parish, shares the leadership of the parish with the Rector and consists of 9 members, who are nominated and elected by the congregation for three-year terms. They meet to oversee the temporal affairs of the parish, as well as to support the rector and staff in promoting the spiritual welfare of the parish. In addition, the vestry, in conjunction with the finance committee, is accountable for the fiscal responsibility of Saint Paul's.

Vestry meetings are open to all interested in attending. Vestry meetings take place in person on the third Monday of the month.
