The Parish Profile

The profile is a document designed to outline where we are as a parish: where we have been, some of our strengths and challenges and our hopes.

It is used to advertise the position, guide applicants in discerning a possible call to All Saints’, and guide our committees in their discernment. Our website, conversations, interviews, and parish input are additional ways for us to discern as a community.

Ultimately, as the Episcopal Church is structured, the vestry makes the final discernment and decision about who the next rector will be. We ask for your prayers during this time.
