Our Leadership Team
Session
In the Presbyterian form of government, the church is governed by ELDERS. Elected by the congregation and ordained by the church, elders serve as the primary leadership board - known as the SESSION - of the church. They are responsible for every aspect of the church, from providing spiritual leadership and vision to the care of our building and our finances.
ELDERS currently serving on session:
Class of 2007: Margaret Knight, Barbara Welch
Class of 2008: Peter Champagne, Julie Demaree, Charles Seifert
Class of 2009: Peter Giaquinto, Donna Martin, John Parker
Deacons
The church also elects and ordains DEACONS to serve our congregation and community. Deacons provide for the basic elements of worship each week, organize community outreach programs, and oversee our ministry to the sick and shut-ins. They also provide financial assistance and scholarships to people in need.
Current Board of DEACONS:
Class of 2007: Liz Holub, Sylvia Van Deinse, Becky Wells
Class of 2008: Cathy Hall (moderator), Nancy Giaquinto, Harry Scott
Class of 2009: Kenneth Killian, Marie Parker
Other key leaders
In addition to serving on session, Barbara Welch is our CLERK OF SESSION and Chuck Seifert is our TREASURER. Other important positions are held by members who are not elders: Bev Davis is chair of our CHRISTIAN EDUCATION COMMITTEE, and Marty Davis is chair of our FINANCE COMMITTEE.
