The word “presbyterian” means governed or ruled by elders. First Presbyterian Church is governed by the Session, which is made up of fifteen persons, who are elected by the congregation to serve as ruling elders, and the three pastors, who are elected by the congregation to serve as teaching elders. The Session has the responsibility and authority for governing the work of the church on behalf of the congregation.
