Presbyterian Leadership Structure

Two Offices:
Elder and Deacon

Our ministers serve as “teaching elders,” while Jesus Christ is the recognized head of our church. The Elders make up our Session, which is responsible for spiritual leadership, operation, and direction of the church. Meanwhile, the Deacon Board acts as the hands and feet of service, and is the serving body of the congregation. See the DEACONS and ELDERS section below for current listings of our church leadership.
