Commissions

Saint Philip’s commissions are designed to be lively hubs of activity that harness the gifts of our lay leaders. Staff and clergy serve as liaisons for each commission, and a Vestry member serves on each commission, as well. This helps ensure there is dialogue and shared direction between the different parts of parish and programmatic leadership.
