The Vestry Handbook was first published in 1988 and a revised editionwas published in 2000. Over that span of time it has sold nearly 90,000copies and continues to sell well each year. Inevitably, such a working guidebook becomes out of date if not revisedat regular intervals. The Canons of the church change and new issuesconfront Vestries. The author consulted diocesan administrators, other clergy, the ChurchDeployment Office, and the Church Pension Fund for this timely revision. Canons, resource listings, financial information, continuing education,technology issues, plus how to deal with current tensions in theAnglican Communion and a myriad of other spot revisions can be foundthroughout this completely updated edition.
