Church Leadership
Session
The Session is the governing council of the church and is composed of ruling elders elected by the congregation and the teaching elders (or ministers) of the church. Together, they exercise leadership, governance, and oversight for the life of the congregation and actively participate in the work of the larger church locally and beyond.
The ruling elders also function as trustees of the church corporation, which conducts business on behalf of the congregation, and is responsible for the upkeep and maintenance of the church building and the stewardship of the congregation's resources.
Session is moderated by the Pastor, Rev. Sarah Weisiger.
Our clerk of session is Kathryn Doms.
