Every Presbyterian church is governed by a representative democracy. The Session consists of our Pastor, nine active Ruling Elders, and the Clerk of Session. The Ruling Elders are congregation members elected by the congregation. Ruling Elders are representatives for the people of the church, active in various committees, and oversee all aspects of a church.
The Session is charged with maintaining the spiritual welfare and government of the church. In keeping with this purpose, it has the power to receive members into the communion of the church; set the church budget; minister to those in need; further our faith formation; and encourage a vision of the future with hope
