Thank you for your willingness to be a candidate for Incarnation's Vestry, a delegate to our Diocesan Convention, or both!

Elections for both positions take place at our Annual Parish Meeting, which will be on Sunday, January 14, 2024, following the 10:15 service.

Vestry members serve a three-year term. For more on vestry roles and responsibilities, see here. The four candidates receiving the most votes will become members.

Delegates to Convention will serve as voting members at our diocese's 2024 Convention. This year's Convention will not require travel as it is being held online. The date has not yet been announced but is likely to be in late October or early November. The seven candidates receiving the most votes will serve as Delegates and additional candidates will serve as Alternates. Convention is a great way to learn more about the wider church and our diocesan family and participate in the leadership and governance of the Episcopal Church.

Please share a little about yourself below. A paragraph or two is fine. Write in the first person and share who you are and why you feel you may be called to serve in one of these ministries. (For examples from our 2023 candidates, see here.)

If possible, please upload a photo of yourself using the link below. This photo will appear with your bio in the materials for the Annual Parish Meeting.

Alternatively, you can email a photo to alison@incarnationsantarosa.org.
