When Choosing Vestry Candidates…
From the Truro By-Laws, the following criteria for Vestry membership apply: An individual must be confirmed. Paid staff and their spouses are excluded from Vestry service. Candidates should be mature Christians; worship God regularly, lead an active prayer life; know and study the Bible, be cheerful givers, and have family relationships that reflect strong Christian commitment. Candidates should be recognized as leaders, bring a useful skill to the Vestry and have enough time to be able to serve effectively and make a commitment to put Vestry service high on the list of personal priorities. Vestry membership should not be considered as an honor for past service, but as a commitment for future service.
Voting Eligibility Requirements…
