Emeritus Elders and Deacons
The Session is pleased to recognize our veteran elders and deacons that have served our congregation, presbytery, and denomination well over the years. The PCA allows the Session to recognize such men with a title of “Emeritus”. Please congratulate these men for their faithful service among us and praise God for blessing us with gifted leadership. Join us next Sunday as we recognize these men publicly during the Fellowship lunch.
