Church Leadership Reports

Diocesan News & Publications

Church Leadership January 17, 2014
At every annual meeting, a parish elects members to serve in their Vestry. Depending on its bylaws, either the congregation or the vestry also elects the wardens, secretary, and treasurer. Following that election, the Church Leadership Report form should be completed online and sent to the Diocesan Office.

Mission churches have their warden and Bishop's Committee appointed annually by the Bishop. Before submitting their Church Leadership Report, they should speak with the Canon to the Ordinary about certifying their Bishop's Committee membership.

 

Once the forms are on file, the master contact and email list will be changed at Diocesan Office, which, among other things, means that wardens, secretaries, and treasurers will start to receive information about upcoming events, training sessions, etc. Parish administrators, youth ministers, and bookkeepers will also start to receive information pertinent to their ministries throughout the year.

 

The Church Leadership Report is due no more than 30 days after the election or appointment of your congregation's wardens, secretary, and treasurer.

 

If you have any technical issues filling out the form, please call Brian Funk-Kinnaman in the Diocesan Office at 502-854-7148 ext. 243
