About the Guild‎ > ‎

Guild Leadership

The Vergers' Guild of the Episcopal Church has a board that consists of elected officers and appointed committee chairs. For more information about guild leadership, please contact VGEC President, Margaret McLarty. This section contains information about board meetings, about annual business meetings at the annual VGEC Conference, and about the members of the board.

Board Meetings

The board meets typically twice a year: at the annual conference and at a mid-year gathering at the upcoming annual conference site. More information is available at Guild Leadership - Board Meetings.

Business Meetings

At each annual VGEC Conference, we convene a business meeting of all Vergers in attendance to review the past year and to discuss the vision of the board for the upcoming years for the VGEC. More information is available at Guild Leadership - Business Meetings
