Vermont Episcopal Church Survey Guides Diocese Planning
A Vermont study shows about 3 percent of state residents are Episcopalians, higher than the national rate but lower than New England. Presented to 54 congregations in Montpelier and Rutland, the data cover geography, attendance, growth, and finances to plan regionalization, evangelism, education, and lay leadership. Bishop Butterfield will use the report in 1965 visitations for parish review and strategy.
