SESSION
One of the great privileges you have in life is to become involved in the life and work of your church.  Many opportunities open up from time to time to give you that privilege.

Every year we ask for volunteers to serve on the different boards and committees of the church. Some of our members of the Session have completed their term and now they need to be replaced.  This year we need seven members.

The main duty of the Session is to oversee the spiritual interests
of the congregation.  

This would include: ~  The admission of persons into full membership, or their removal and granting of certificates to transfer.  ~   The administration of the sacraments.

~  The religious training of the young, such as the conducting
of Confirmation Classes.

~  The order of public worship and the use of the Sanctuary.

~  The maintaining of the registers of Baptisms, Marriages
and Burials, and also the upkeep of the Congregational Membership Roll.  ~  The care of the poor and the visiting of the sick, along with other outreach endeavours.  

 

These are but a few of the duties and responsibilities of the Session. Meetings are held monthly, except July and August, and regular attendance is encouraged. If you feel inclined to be involved in this rewarding and satisfying ministry, and you want to make this kind of contribution to the life and work of your congregation and to the Kingdom of God, all you have to do is call the Clerk of Session, Ray Penney, or the Church Office, and submit your name. Members are appointed to the Session at the Annual Congregational Meeting.
