- The vestry has decided not to pursue the five candidates who applied for our half-time rector position and to suspend our search for a rector for a brief period.
- This difficult decision was made after holding a financial mini-retreat with Canon Andrew Walter from the Diocese.
- The vestry will hold a vestry retreat on June 15 and will focus on initiating a new search based on the evolution in expectations for both clergy and congregations.
- Two of our vestry who are also former Senior Wardens (Liz and Shaun) led the Lenten discussion on the book “Part Time is Plenty”* which was so timely considering our status and I encourage everyone to read it to better understand what we face.
