Management
The
spiritual oversight and management of St Mary's involves many people
working together in unity.
Annual General Meetings of Church Members occur each year during
Feb/Mar for designated leaders to report and recommend and for the
congregation to recommend, discuss and decide on matters of importance.
We keep an up-to-date "electoral roll" of those who are eligible to
vote on such occasions. To check if you are on this roll or to discuss
about joining it please contact us.
