Elders’ Districts
Caring for the flock of God

While session maintains oversight of the entire congregation, it charges each elder with the oversight of a list of families and individuals connected with the congregation.

Our Elders serve by shepherding the flock of God, Reforming Church (1 Peter 5:1-5).

A session ordinarily consists of the minister of a charge and two or more elders. A session is established by the presbytery to exercise oversight over every aspect of the life of a congregation or of linked congregations.

The word ‘Session’ comes from the Latin of ‘to sit’. As a court of the church, when the Teaching Elder (Minister) moderates the meeting of Ruling Elders, they are sitting in session. The Session, under the Chief Shepherd who is Christ, is where pastoral care and authority sits to serve the local congregation.
