Parish Profile & Search Committees to be Formed
The Vestry will soon be calling a Parish Profile Committee to research and prepare a document about Trinity and the characteristics sought in our next rector. The "Profile" will be used to inform and invite potential rector candidates to participate in the recruitment process led by a Search Committee. There will be opportunities for all parishioners to take part in the Profile's development, which will be led by the Profile Committee. More information about the specific expectations and qualifications for Committee members will become available in early May at trinitychurchboston.org/news, at the Parish House front desk, and through Trinity Events and Trinity Community Update email.
