Vestry

Together, the priest and the Vestry oversee church operations, provide direction, and support the mission and ministry of the parish. Each member of the Vestry is responsible for the effectiveness of the ministries of St. James’, shaping and guiding them for the growth of the congregation and for outreach to the community beyond our walls. Members of the Vestry are committed to pursuing their personal growth as leaders and to ministering to one another in Christian community.
