Vestry Election

New Vestry Election Dates: November 8-15 

The Vestry election, our church’s lay (volunteer) leadership body, will take place the week of November 8, 2026. The new vestry will be installed in January 2027. All eligible voters are encouraged to participate in the election!  

How do I nominate a candidate? 

If you would like to nominate a candidate, please contact the Vestry Nomination and Election Committee at vnec@tfcanglican.org by Sunday, September 6. Please keep your nominations confidential, as nominees’ qualifications (e.g., must be a member and confirmed, regularly attend Sunday worship services, and financially support the body) must be verified.
