After prayer and reflection of this site, feel free to contact us for more information.

Lay Leadership

There are many roles in which members can help carry out the operation of St. George's Episcopal Church.

Vestry

While the Rector is in charge of all spiritual matters and staff direction, the Vestry is the elected board of the church, responsible for all “temporal matters.” With the Rector serving as chair, the elected Vestry holds all decision making responsibilities for the church.

Officers

The Rector’s Warden and Parish Warden are the elected lay leaders of the Vestry. They have special responsibilities and chair meetings in the absence of the Rector or at the Rector's request. The Treasurer is our elected financial officer.

Committees

Various committees share the load for our operations, under direction of the Vestry. Our three Standing Committees are Finance, Buildings & Grounds, and Personnel. Special committees form as needed. This currently includes Community Engagement and Church Growth.
