furnishings and appointments of the same; providing all things requisite to the carrying on of the work of the parish,
and making payments of all parish obligations, including the fair share and other obligations to the Diocese."
Saint James' Vestry is currently composed of nine

Vestry members are elected by the eligible, voting members of the congregation in order to fill any open positions. The Senior Warden is appointed by the
Parish Rector. The Junior Warden is elected from within the Vestry membership.
