Our Officers
ELDERS serve on the chief governing body of the congregation, the Session. Because the Session is charged with the spiritual guidance of the congregation, ensuring the faithfulness of our mission in Christ, and overseeing the church’s activities, an Elder should have gifts of spiritual maturity, wisdom, and dedication to the church and our mission in Christ. DEACONS are called to selfless service, modeling the type of service and care Christ showed his disciples and all in need. Because our SHPC Deacons lead our congregational care ministries, they should have gifts of wisdom and compassion, and a calling to serve in the areas of outreach, visitation, and prayer.
