Episcopal
Parishes are governed by a board of elected parishioners. The name
"Vestry" comes from the name of the room the clergy and choir used to
put on their "vest-ments", where the Governing Boards used to meet
centuries ago (they don't meet their anymore but the name stuck!).
The
Vestry helps guide the Mission of the congregation and serves as our the legal
and fiduciary agents.
