Our Governance

Our bylaws govern our life together.

Here is our 2026 Approved Leadership, which includes:

Deacons Leadership Team

This group is a ministry-centered body which works with the Pastoral Staff in the care and service of the church membership and its mission.

Executive Leadership Team (ELT)

This group exercises oversight of the management and governance of the church working with our Pastoral Staff and church committees.

Church Committees

These groups participate in church leadership supporting and advance the work of the church, each focusing on a particular area of church life: Personnel, Stewardship, Facilities, and Missions.
