Parish Annual Meeting
Grace will hold its Annual Meeting on January 23rd after the 10 AM service. The meeting will also be conducted virtually, look for more information on that next week. We want full participation. Our parish and Diocesan by-laws require an annual parish meeting and state the qualifications to be a voting member of the parish. The annual parish meeting will elect vestry members. Delegates to the diocesan convention and representatives to other diocesan or parish entities will also be elected by the parish meeting. The budget of the parish will be presented and approved. The priest-in-charge, vestry officers, music director, and other parish or program leaders may make presentations at the annual parish meeting.
