Vestry Update On StaffingMarch 13, 2026Expanding Our Horizon: New Staffing Vision
A Heartfelt Thank YouThanks to your generosity during our 2025 Stewardship campaign, St. Andrew’s is able to answer the call for increased support for our Rector and congregation. Over half of our pledgers increased their commitment by an average of 23%, leading to an overall 13% increase in pledges.
A Strategic Shift in StaffingIn response to our call for more support, we have spent time in careful discernment regarding our administrative and ministry needs. To best serve our vision of being a thriving, welcoming community, we have decided to hire two part-time positions instead of one full-time role. This approach allows us to bring in expertise for two distinct areas while saving the parish over $20,000 annually.
The Roadmap Ahead
Parish Administrator: Our first priority is onboarding a Parish Administrator. This role will focus on moving us “online” by modernizing our calendars and documentation, and “inline” as we transition from ACS to the new REALM system. We are currently finalizing the Job Description and aim to have the position officially posted by the end of the month.
Liturgical Support: During this transition, Lori will continue to provide her vital support for a few hours each week, managing bulletins, our parish register, and arrangements for baptisms, weddings, and funerals.
Programming & Ministries: Once our new digital systems are organized and online, we will finalized a Job Description for a second part-time position focused specifically on our programming and ministries.
We are so grateful for your continued commitment to our congregation and the wider community. We look forward to how these new roles will help us live more fully into our shared vision! [...]
