ORGANIZATION ACTIVITIES:

    Session is an elected & ordained ruling body within the local congregation. Presently, the fourteen Elders have been given the responsibility to oversee all aspects of the Church.
  • Session delegates the physical aspects, i.e. buildings to the Board of Managers, and finances to the Treasurer. This frees the Elders to concentrate upon the spiritual needs of the congregation.
  • Each elder has a list of families to oversee. They target four visitations per year, usually prior to Communion.
  • Elders also serve on various committees involving the Mission, Worship, Instruction, Fellowship and oversight of the Sacraments.
  • Session is accountable to the Presbytery of Pickering.
  • Session meetings, due to the confidentiality of the topics, are closed to the congregation.
