On Sunday June 19th, over two dozen parishioners gathered after the 10 am service to consider the year ahead for St. John’s. We heard about how bishops are elected in the Episcopal Church, and how the possible election of Thomas Brown would result in our ownrector, Tom Mousin, finishing his time with us. At the forum, Tom made it clear that regardless of the outcome of the election, this was a significant time in the life of St. John’s.
The Vestry will be meeting in September for a planning retreat, and now that we know that we will not be focused on the search for a new rector, the Vestry will be seeking your input as we plan for the next few years ahead. Those who attended the forum on June 19th received a set of questions that will help us to consider where God is calling us to be as a parish. Over the course of the summer, there will be a more formal survey online for you to add your input. But if you were not at the forum, you can click on the link below for a copy of the questions. Please give some time to answer these questions. For all who have received them, please return them to the church office by July 15th. Thank you!
