Vestry Nominations Begin with Intentional Prayer

It’s never too early to start prayerfully considering the upcoming Vestry openings! Do you feel called to serve as a leader in our church community? Or do you know someone whose gifts and faith would make them a strong Vestry leader? Please take time to pray and reflect on who God might be calling to this important ministry. The nomination process will officially begin at the end of July. A nomination box will be available at that time for you to submit names. Let’s seek God’s guidance together as we prepare for this next season of leadership.
