THE SESSION
At Harvey Browne, the Session is the elected governing body of our congregation, made up of ruling elders who serve alongside our pastors to help guide the life and ministry of our congregation. Together, they provide spiritual leadership, discern God’s direction for our church, and make decisions about our shared ministry, mission, worship, and life together. In the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), ruling elders are elected by the congregation and ordained to serve with compassion, wisdom, and faithfulness. From worship and mission to caring for our congregation and planning for the future, the Session helps us live out our calling to love God, love one another, and serve our neighbors.
