Church Elections

Volunteer... Nominate... Vote...

Here is a saying you can trust. If anyone wants to be a leader in the church, they want to do a good work for God and people
[1 Timothy 3:1].

Elections Meeting 

Our annual Elections Meeting will be held on Sunday, December 03 via in-person and virtual forum. This year, we will fill four (04) open Vestry positions, as well as the expiring Rector’s Warden position, along with one Diocesan Delegate position and one Alternate Diocesan Delegate position.

The chair of the Elections Committee is Abdullah Skerritt who is ably assisted and supported by an Elections Committee comprising Derek Cole, Ernestine Blango, Franklin Diaz, and Hector Velazquez.

The committee will utilize the same digital hybrid process – virtual and in-person – that was designed and successfully executed by the 2020 committee, and used ever since.  The process provides three voting options: online, in-person, mail-in ballots.  This precedence-setting exercise proved to be the ideal solution for this unprecedented COVID-19 situation and is equally suited for use during “normal” times.
