Vestry

What is Vestry? An Anglican vestry consists of individuals who work together to support the church's administration and decision-making. This group includes some of the Parish clergy (ordained ministers) and elected representatives from the congregation. They meet to discuss and decide on matters related to the church's activities, finances, and overall well-being. It's a collaborative effort where diverse perspectives come together to contribute to the smooth functioning and growth of the Anglican community.
