The Vestry of Holy Cross

The Vestry is a group of 9 lay members who, with the Rector, oversee the life of our parish community. The Vestry is responsible for oversight of the temporal needs of the parish—administration of finance and upkeep of the grounds of the property—and act as a Council of Advice and Consent to the Rector. We are responsible for setting policy, vision and direction at the highest level in the parish. We are not a management committee. Members of the Vestry are elected in rotation at the annual parish meeting and serve for a three-year period.
