Our Elders

Our church's form of government functions much like a representative democracy. We elect leaders to make many decisions on behalf of the whole church. These leaders are called elders and they serve on our governing board called the "Session."  Women and men may be leaders in our church and serve on the Session.  

Our Session functions like a board of directors in many cases, but they are also spiritual leaders. Elders are charged with the task of seeking what God is doing in the world and then leading our church in that direction. They strive to be humble, kind, and visionary in their leadership.
