Trustees

Trustees

The Trustees have three primary tasks:

  1. To review all transfers of assets, debt service, and leases that exceed the limit congregations can execute on their own.
  2. To oversee all financial matters of the presbytery to include: budget formation, per capita, investments, and policies governing the aforementioned.

Trustees' Spiritual Gifts, Passions, and Qualifications:

  • Has good communication and relational skills.

We have three committees reflecting each task; trustees are expected to serve on at least one. We form ad hoc committees that deal with specific matters that arise. We meet once a month, or as needed, via zoom. We are supported by the stated clerk and a presbytery leader. The treasurer attends our meetings as well.
