Church Officers & Committees

The gifts he gave were that some would be apostles,
some prophets, some evangelists, some pastors and teachers.
Ephesians 4:11

Ruling Elders

A major contributor to Reformed theology was John Calvin, who converted from Roman Catholicism after training for the priesthood and in the law. In exile in Geneva, Switzerland, Calvin developed the presbyterian pattern of church government, which vests governing authority primarily in elected church members known as ruling elders. The word presbyterian comes from the Greek word for elder.

Ruling elders are chosen by the people. Together with teaching elders (ministers of the Word and Sacrament), they exercise leadership, government, and discipline and have responsibilities for the life of a particular church as well as the church at large, including ecumenical relationships. They shall serve faithfully as members of the session.

Deacons

The office of deacon as set forth in Scripture is one of compassion, witness, and service after the example of Jesus Christ.  It is the duty of deacons, first of all, to minister to those who are in need, to the sick, to the friendless, and to any who may be in distress both within and beyond the community of faith.
