Just what I needed!
As a newly elected vestry member of my church, I was looking for something to make the experience a bit more meaningful. I happened upon this book and ordered it.

As a newly elected vestry member of my church, I was looking for something to make the experience a bit more meaningful. I happened upon this book and ordered it. I found it wonderful, tapping into the spirituality of service to the Church. I used it as a sort of guide to a program a presented at our vestry retreat on why I felt called to this service. I would fully recommend it to anyone serving on a vestry (either for 1 day or 20 years) or considering service on a vestry. God has plans for each of us and it is up to us to discover what these plans are - this book has helped me start that journey.

It's a collection of the author's personal experiences and tid-bits of her idea of what makes a good Vestry member in the Episcopal Church. It's not clear why the author thinks she's qualified to make suggestions on how to succeed on the Vestry. She apparently quit her local parish Vestry when things got too controversial. She's the Sarah Palin of the Episcopal Vestry. Quit and then write a book.
