Parish Leadership

The vestry is the governing body of the parish and is comprised of nine elected members. Three members are elected each year to serve a three-year term, creating a rotation that allows for continuity of leadership. From within the vestry, wardens are elected annually. The entire vestry works closely with the rector, but the Senior Warden and Junior Warden have special responsibilities in that they are somewhat considered the “top lay persons” of the parish. The vestry appoints the treasurer and clerk of the vestry.

The music at Good Shepherd is under the direction of Janet Varner who brings a wealth of talent to the positions of music director, choir director, organist, and pianist. We have a dedicated adult choir that provides an uplifting vocal ministry through a variety of musical presentations.
