Leadership

Based on our strong belief in baptismal ministry, Immanuel has a unique form of parish leadership. We have two bodies who take leadership roles in different aspects of parish life: Vestry and Ministry Support Team. We also have individual parish members who are responsible for particular areas of parish life.

The Vestry

Our Vestry is an elected group of parishioners, charged with oversight of our buildings, finances and other administrative matters. The Vestry approves contracts, hires parish employees, and does strategic planning. Vestry members can serve a total of six years. Then they must take one year off before returning to this role. The Vestry usually meets once per month.

Our Vestry
LeAnn Winter, Senior Warden srwarden@immanuelepiscopal.org
Bette Harrison, Junior Warden jrwarden@immanuelepiscopal.org
David DeRusha, Treasurer treasurer@immanuelepiscopal.org
Jeanne Gage, Clerk (ex-officio)
Marien Gage
Janet Hunter

The Vestry supports us all by making sure the buildings are in good repair, the bills are paid, the snow removed in winter and the church and its congregation can exist into the indefinite future.

Ministry Support Team Rev. Victor Horvath

Our Ministry Support Team is a group of parishioners who have been commissioned or ordained by the Bishop to serve the parish. Their service in this role is intended to be life long. MST members are charged with supporting the ministry of all members of the parish, leading and supporting each person to fully embrace their role as members of Christ's body.
