Leadership/Staff

Leadership of the Episcopal Church of the Holy Spirit consists of the clergy, vestry and staff of the parish. The lead clergy person or Rector is called by the congregation with the approval of the Bishop of the Diocese of Atlanta.

The vestry is comprised of parishioners elected by all adult members of the parish for three-year terms and is responsible for the oversight and management of the church finances and property. Vestry members are also the spiritual leaders of the church, responsible for carrying out the mission of the church.

Priorities of the Holy Spirit vestry for 2017 include:

Dwelling in the Word and the World by finding ways to go deeper into Scripture and to connect with people outside our community of faith.
Utilizing a Management Team to more efficiently review business matters and reporting and recommending actions to the full vestry
Working to extend our mission and faith more fully in inviting and welcoming people to our church; in growing through relationships , service and study as we welcome new members; and in bringing newcomers fully into the faith, life and ministry of our church
Bringing to fruition our Building to Serve campaign through careful oversight of all phases of construction work utilizing the Management Team to expedite decisions as needed
