Vestry
The rector, wardens and vestry, plus clerk and treasurer, constitute
the governing body of the Church of the Holy Trinity. Wardens,
vestry, clerk and treasurer are elected by the members of the parish
at the annual meeting held the last Sunday in January.
The vestry, which meets monthly, is responsible for the financial
affairs of the parish. It also deals with church building and
grounds, Christian education, liturgy, outreach, parish activities
and various other matters. Contact: Pam Ferguson (347-0458) or
Carlton Winslow (343-7388).
Building & Grounds
This committee is responsible for overseeing the upkeep and
maintenance of parish property. It arranges clean-up days and
periodic inspections of the property, recommending necessary
maintenance measures to the vestry.
Annual Appeal
As an integral part of the over-all Stewardship Program the Annual
Appeal is conducted in the fall for the purpose of soliciting
commitments to provide financial support of the parish programs. The
campaign seeks to inform all parishioners of church needs. It
usually begins in October and is concluded in December, so that the
following year's budget can be based on the amount of pledged income
to be received. Contact: Veronika Webb (345-2610).
Communications
Included in communications are the Sunday bulletin, the Trinity
Trumpet newsletter, articles in the Middletown section of the
Hartford Courant and the Middletown Press. It also includes booklets
like this one and the one on outreach, newcomer information, and
other parish mailings, as needed, to keep parishioners informed of
the facets of our life.
Ministry Development Team
A small group of people committed to the concept of Total Common
Ministry at Holy Trinity. We meet regularly to develop ways to
encourage small groups and other activities that will allow every
member of the community to be nurtured in their life and faith.
Contact: Eric Rennie (635-1572).
Liturgy & Music
A group of people who meet seasonally to reflect on our worship
together and make suggestions to the rector and minister of music
about how the various aspects of the liturgy can reflect the
theology of the church year. Contact: Mike Fazio (526-5844).
