We are a congregational
form of governance under the Holy Spirit's leading. The members of the
church have the final say in matters of decision making concerning finances,
leadership, and ministries. Members are elected to serve as officers on
one of four board and on various committees.
Elected officers include:
• Moderator
• Clerk
• Treasurer
• Financial Secretary
• Sunday School Superintendent
There are four church boards:
• Board of Deacons
• Board of Deaconesses
• Board of Christian Education
• Board of Trustees
In addition to the elected officer and church boards, there are also four standing committees:
• Finance Committee
• Music Committee
• Nominating Committee
• Usher Committee
