Vestry

The Vestry of St. Thomas Anglican Church is an elected governance body of lay leaders. This group works with the Rector to oversee the financial and practical affairs of the Church. Vestry members serve a three year term and new vestry members are elected each year at our annual meeting (late January / early February).

Within the Vestry, there are several key leadership positions including the Senior Warden and Junior Warden. All Vestry members are required to be members of St. Thomas who have also been confirmed / received into the Anglican Church and affirm the Theological Statement of the Anglican Church in North America.

Below is a list of our current vestry members. In parenthesis is the year of the annual meeting when their term expires.
