CHURCH LEADERSHIP

SESSION

Comprised of the Pastor and Elders as voting members, the Session is the governing body of the church. Elders are elected by the congregation as ordained officers, serving three-year terms. Elders act as the spiritual overseers of the church, determining policy and exercising leadership, governance, and discipline, all while acting as shepherds to the congregation, setting an example for all.

 

The Session generally meets once a month on the fourth Tuesday of the month at 6:00 pm.  Meetings are open to congregants and minutes are available from the church office.

DEACONS

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. Deacons look for where God is moving and how they can help with that. 

 

Our Deacons are so important to the St. Andrew congregation they have their own page.... 


NOMINATING COMMITTEE

Every year, the congregation elects a new class of Elders and Deacons to serve the church. The Nominating Committee is instrumental in this work, identifying potential officers and proposing a slate of candidates at the Annual Congregational Meeting each spring. Although they are not officers of the church, Nominating Committee members are elected by the congregation and serve one-year terms.

 

2024-2025:  John Beltz, Craig Card, Tekla Coronado, Sara Clegg, Dennis Grimes, Dan Gustafson, Angela Ljung, and Skye Miller.
