Due to vast number and wide variety of responsibilities of the church Session of First Presbyterian Church, thirteen (13) divisions have been formed with each having a specific set of responsibilities. Each division is chaired by an Elder on the Session and is composed of other Session members, staff, and members of the congregation. All Elders who are currently Session members, serve on no less than one committee and, as all members, are encouraged to participate in all the activities of the church.
Please note that the different divisions listed below are actual links to other pages on this site. If you wish to view those pages, or require more information, please click the session division page name you would like to see, or use the links located to the left. Incidentally, corresponding Elder contacts are listed for each division on their appropriate pages.
