Staff - We believe every member of Tualatin Presbyterian
Church is a minister, however we look to a few special folks for unique
leadership and care. Our church staff includes an administrative
professional, two music directors, a youth and children's worker, and
minister of word and sacrament.
|
Session - One of the fantastic things about being
Presbyterian is that the minister doesn't run the church. The
session, a group of men and women nominated and ordained by the
congregation and called by God, is responsible for the spiritual and
administrative life of the congregation. While in our tradition we
certainly look to a pastor for guidance in matters of faith and vision-
our session actually makes the decisions about how our church moves
forward.
|
Deacons - Like the session, our board of deacons is made
of up of men and women nominated and ordained by the congregation who are
following God's call. The word deacon stems from the Greek term diaconos,
and it means to serve. While the session is responsible for making
the decisions of the congregation, our deacons are responsible for the
pastoral care and spiritual nurture of the congregation.
