Vestry

The Vestry of Grace and Holy Trinity Cathedral functions much like the board of directors of any nonprofit. As the legal representatives and agents of the Parish, our Vestry members are charged with specific responsibilities by the canons of The Episcopal Church.  Together with the Dean, the Vestry is responsible for the temporal affairs of the Cathedral Parish which include finances, property management, and human resources.

Beyond that, our Vestry discerns what God is calling our faith community to do and articulates a vision of the Cathedral’s mission.  Our mission and vision are the foundation for our decisions and actions.
