The 2011 Annual Conference of the VGEC was held
September 29th through October 2nd, 2011
at Trinity Cathedral in Cleveland, Ohio
One of the most anticipated and popular activities of the Verger Guild of the Episcopal Church is our annual conference which takes place at various member parishes each year.
Typically held Thursday through Sunday in October, each conference has a series of workshops and sessions that cover several topics of interest to the verger along with events to foster fellowship and learning. Each conference culminates with the "Parade of Vergers" and a festival Holy Eucharist with the host parish vergers leading the way. Each conference concludes with the taking of the official conference photo. All past photos are located HERE.
In 2012, we will gather at All Saints Episcopal Church in Lakeland, Florida from Thursday October 11th through Sunday October 14th. This will be the 24th annual conference since the first was held in Nashville, Tennessee in 1989. Complete information about the 2012 conference is located HERE.
