Annual Parish Meeting 2024 – Snow Much Fun!

We gathered in a warm cozy Briscoe Hall on Sunday amidst the snowflake-covered tables for our annual parish meeting! The kids even enjoyed snowball play outside with the 200 snowballs that were the inspiration for this year’s decorations!

We shared a delicious potluck meal and spent some time connecting with fellow parishioners. There was a short business meeting where Treasurer Sharon Carson presented the 2024 budget which was passed after a brief discussion. Joe Parker, Nano Tafolla, and Beth Huddleston were elected to the St. Philip’s Vestry for a three-year term. We said goodbye to the retiring vestry members, Laura Downing, Kristin Tyk, and Mickey Gerdes, and thanked them for their time on the vestry. It was announced that Randy Harris will be the new Senior Warden in 2024. Becky Capt announced to the church that her father is continuing his ministry of providing The One Year Study Bible to anyone who wants one. The Bibles can be picked up in the church office.
