With grateful hearts, Hyde Park United Methodist announces that our beloved Lynn Osborne will retire as our Comptroller after 30 years of faithful service. Lynn’s steadfast leadership, wise stewardship, and unwavering integrity have been a cornerstone of our financial health and missional focus for three decades. We are deeply thankful for her dedication, and we celebrate the many ways her work has enabled Hyde Park to do God’s work in our community and beyond.
We are pleased to announce that Mindi Vaughn, a valued member of our current church staff, will assume the role of Comptroller. Mindi will begin training during this transitional period as we move toward Lynn’s retirement in early August. We are confident that Mindi’s experience, commitment to our church family, and thoughtful approach to finances will guide Hyde Park with continuity and care as we enter this new chapter.
