Vestry

The Vestry

Holy Comforter’s Vestry consists of 12 persons, each elected by the congregation to serve no more than a three-year term. The terms of each group of four are staggered so that four are elected annually and four are retired. The Vestry carries out its canonical duties through an organization of the officers (senior warden and junior warden), register, secretary, treasurer, assistant treasurer, committee chairs, and members at large, with the Rector as the chair. In making a commitment to serve, each Vestry member gives their time and talents to fulfilling this role.

Vestry Person of the Month (VPOM)

Each month one Vestry member is the Vestry Person of the Month (VPOM). The role of the VPOM is to serve as the point person for our combined interaction within the Holy Comforter community and the Vestry’s canonical role and responsibility in promoting the spiritual well-being of our parish.

For the month of December 2024, the VPOM is David Grove.

David and his wife, Maggie, have been members of Holy Comforter since 2009. On the Vestry he currently serves as your Senior Warden. David is also member of the Choir, the weekly Men’s Bible Study, a Lay Reader, a Eucharistic Minister, and often attends both the annual Parish and Men’s Retreats at Shrine Mont. He has formerly served as Stewardship Chair, a member of the Finance Committee, Usher, and Confirmation Mentor. In 2022 he served as the Co-Chair of the Growing Our Faith, Family and Future Capital Campaign.

If you have any comments, questions, or are in need of pastoral care, please do not hesitate to reach out this month’s VPOM, David Grove.
