Vestry

The Vestry of Grace and St. Stephen's


Our vestry is a Christ-centered leadership group that holds legal and fiscal responsibility for the property and budget of the church under Colorado nonprofit law, and serves in a consultative role with the rector in other matters of parish life.


The vestry is the governing body of Grace and St Stephen's. The vestry works with the Rector to define and articulate the mission of the congregation, to support this mission by word and deed, to ensure effective organization and planning, and to manage resources and finances. Serving on the vestry is a wonderful opportunity to give back to the congregation and help shape its future.
