THE FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH OF ITHACA, NY
A Congregation of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.)
In Presbyterian churches, major decision-making and the main leadership of the church is carried out by our members, who by serving are fulfilling their own ministry and calling in God. As leaders, their work is to equip all our members in the ministry of love and service to which Jesus invites us. Here is the current leadership of our congregation at work:
The Session:
The Session as a whole makes decisions for the congregation, and leads working groups of the church in Worship, Finance, Mission, Education, Stewardship, Fellowship, and more.
The Deacons:
The Deacons are pastoral caregivers and congregational visitors, maintainers of church life and mission-givers, who are also called to other forms of service to the congregation and larger community.
