Vestry Meeting | Trinity Aurora

annual vestry meeting

Please join us for our Annual Vestry Meeting on Wednesday, October 7th at 7 PM

The meeting will be both an "in-person" meeting (in the sanctuary with a maximum of 50 people) and a "zoom" meeting. The link to the "zoom" meeting will be sent closer to the date of the meeting to those who register to "attend" by zoom.

Please note that the meeting will be recorded for the purposes of taking minutes.

REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED FOR BOTH METHODS OF ATTENDANCE.

Registration is now open and will close on Sunday, October 4th at 10:00 pm. in order to give us time to prepare for the meeting.
