The vestry of an Episcopal Church parish holds significant responsibility for the financial management of the church. This includes overseeing the parish’s budget, ensuring proper stewardship of resources, and making financial decisions that support the mission and ministry of the church. The vestry works closely with the treasurer and rector to monitor income and expenses, maintain transparency, and ensure compliance with diocesan guidelines and legal requirements. Ultimately, the vestry is accountable for the financial health and sustainability of the parish.

Details about Good Shepherd’s finances can be found in the documents below. In years past, the finances of the church have been tracked as part of the vestry minutes. It is recommended that you also look in the Operational Activities / Vestry section as well for additional information.
