The Session is an elected group of 25 women and men. The Session is charged with spiritual oversight of the total life of the congregation. The membership of the Session consists of the Pastor, Associate Pastors and the active Elders of the congregation. The Pastor serves the Session as Moderator. In their service on the Session and in Committees, members of the Session play a dual role.
As members of the Session, they are responsible for the spiritual oversight of the congregation, and of all the programs and ministries of the church. In the fulfillment of this role, they must see the church from a "wholistic" perspective; that is, they must be concerned with whether the church's programs and ministries are faithful and effective expressions of the church's mission as a congregation of Christ's people. The Session's responsibilities include all policy-making matters, uses of our facilities, reception of members, assignments of benevolence gifts, direction of the services of worship and the sacraments, and the day-to-day work of the church, i.e. budget, personnel, and building and grounds.
As members of Commissions, they are responsible for working with others in planning, implementing, and evaluating particular programs and ministries of the church; and for communicating to the Session all the information necessary for the Session to exercise its role of spiritual oversight.
