Elders
Elders sit on the 18-member Board of Session. The Session is responsible for
overseeing all aspects of the Church: worship, mission, Christian education,
youth, fiscal, physical plant, personnel, and fellowship. Each elder serves as
chair or a member of a church committee. Elders participate in Sunday morning
worship on a rotating basis. The Participating Elder greets people as they
arrive, reads the scripture, and receives the offering. If a baptism is scheduled,
the Elder will assist. When the worship service includes Communion, several
Elders will participate as servers

Deacons
The Boards of Deacons consists of 18 members whose primary focus is on care
and support of members of the congregation. They are commissioned to visit
the sick, befriend the stranger and help the elderly. The deacons communicate
the needs and concerns of the members to the pastor and other members of
the church staff. They are involved with service of Communion; deliver flowers
to those who are sick, home-bound, or celebrating special events; and lead
monthly worship services at the British Home.
