Fr. Wayne Farrell called as rector
The St. Boniface Vestry is pleased to announce that by God’s grace, and with the bishop’s endorsement, we have called the Rev. Wayne F. Farrell to become our rector. With his acceptance, Wayne now becomes the seventh rector of this parish.
Last year at this time the vestry was deep into the search for a priest-in-charge. Some have likened this arrangement in the church to an engagement with the intention of marriage – or more colorfully, rent-to-own. When we asked Wayne in August to fill this role, it was with the understanding that we could make this relationship permanent, or tenured, by calling him to be rector. After eight successful months of ministry together, the vestry decided to extend this call.
We are delighted that Wayne is now our rector, and together look ahead to a long and fruitful time of growth serving Christ and the Church. Please note that nothing changes in our daily parish life; and we are joyous to move from a time of transition to stability.
While Wayne’s rectorship is now effective, please watch for information about his installation service which will take place this fall. -- The Wardens and Members of the St. Boniface Vestry
