Leadership

Congregational Meeting

There will be a congregational meeting on Sunday, November 13th, at 11:00 a.m. for the express purpose of electing officers. This will be a short meeting; please make a point of being there. Thank you.

The Session is the governing body of the church, made up of elders who are responsible for the spiritual path of the congregation and of discerning the will of Christ as they govern. The Session sets policy, approves baptisms and new members, oversees the financial situation, and hires ministers.
