Leadership

LPC, as a presbyterian church, sees the scripture teaching that the church should be governed by a council of officers called 'elders' or 'presbyters' (hence the name, presbyterian). The local council of a congregation is often refered to as 'Session' (the elders hold a 'session' for discussion and deciding on matters). The scripture also teaches that men should be called to care for the practical needs of those in the church. This ministry of service and care is given to the deacons (from the Greek word diakonos, meaning 'servant'). Listed below or those men currently serving on session and the diaconate.
