New Vestry Members and Annual Meeting Recap

Our Annual Meeting was last Sunday, January 30.
Parishioners participated in a hybrid in-person/zoom meeting, and heard reports from Father John, the Wardens, Mission and Outreach. Minutes from the 2021 Annual Meeting were reviewed and approved. The budget for the 2022 fiscal year was presented. The Mission budget was approved.
We had three open vestry positions. Dawn Rodenbaugh’s second term was voted on and approved. Two other vestry nominees, Mike Pugh and John McFassel, were also approved. Convention delegates were also elected. Joining current delegates, Janice and Andy Flood, are Alternates Richard Starr and Wendy Gilbert and Linda Gibeck as Vestry delegate.
Heartfelt appreciation was extended to outgoing Treasurer, Andrea Pugh. The parish is donating a financial gift to the Children’s Home Foundation of Easton in honor of her eight years of devoted work to our parish. Fr. John also thanked Sr. Warden Bruce England, Jr. Warden Ron Himmel, and Finance Chair Dru Torregrossa, for their guidance and leadership during their tenure. We are also thankful to all Committee Chairs and members, new Treasurer Barb England, our Music staff–Joel Alarcon and Alex Bi, our Parish Administrator Valerie Manges, and our Parish Registrar, Sande Taylor.
A BIG THANK YOU to Valerie and her husband Matt for managing our Annual Meeting Coffee Hour, and to all that participated in the meeting either in-person or via zoom.
