The Vestry is the parish council of lay persons, elected by other active members of the parish, who, with the rector, have responsibility for the care and control of church property and the transaction of the business of the congregation. At St. Mary's, the Vestry is also a group that helps the rector and committees to discern and carry out the vision of where God is calling us as a congregation.
The officers of the Vestry are composed of two Wardens, a Clerk, Treasurer and Assistant Treasurer. The Rector is Chairman ex-officio and presides at all meetings of the Vestry. The members and officers of the Vestry are elected at the annual Parish meeting from the members of the Parish who are eligible to vote. The Wardens, Clerk, Treasurer and Assistant Treasurer all hold office for one year. Non-officer members of the Vestry are elected to serve for three years.
