Starting September of 2019, Holy Spirit Verona will host a Seminarian for a year or so. Katherine Rollo will join Father Jerry in worship planning, pastoral visits and preaching during Sunday service. Katherine and her husband John live here in Verona and we give them a huge Holy Spirit welcome! For more information about Katherine's journey and biography, click here.

We want air conditioning! We're kicking-off a “Be Cool” Capital Campaign to air condition Holy Spirit!
We’ve talked about it for years. The impetus, however, came during a recent funeral where more than 250 people were packed in on a humid, 90+ degree day.
The Vestry will be hosting a Newcomers' Dinner for all who have arrived at Holy Spirit Verona within the past year. It's our way to officially welcome you to the community and say thank you for choosing to worship with us. The event will take place Sunday, July 21 at 3pm at the home of Father Jerry and Randy. For further details, speak with Patti Walsh.
Father Jerry has been asked to give the Benediction at Verona's Reorganization Meeting where two new Council Members will be sworned in. Join in the Civic Center (Town Hall Steps) at 5:30pm on Monday, July 1.
Vestry & Staff Members, plus their significant others, are invited to the home of the rector for a Christmas reception. No Vestry Meeting, no agenda, no motions! Just fun and fellowship!
The Vestry typically meets on the second Monday of the month; however for November, we will meet on the third. We'll gather on November 18 at 7:30pm in the Fellowship Hall, unless otherwise indicated.
