Vestry Members strive to live into Trinity’s core values of Respect, Compassion, Integrity, Justice, Inclusion, and Stewardship.
Through deep listening, Vestry members seek to represent the diverse voices and intentions of the congregation while attending to its heart and health. Current topics you will work on include Racial Justice, Budget and Finances, Annual Giving and the current Capital campaign, and other concerns of the community.
Diocesan Delegates represent Trinity every fall at the annual Diocesan Convention, which brings together clergy and members from all churches in the Episcopal Church in Western Oregon. Diocesan Convention is the representative governing body of the diocese.
Delegate expectations include attending Diocesan Convention in late October/early November and attending three Sunday afternoon meetings a year.
