A Commissioned Pastor is a ruling elder in the Presbytery who, once training is complete, is eligible for limited pastoral services. Commissioned Pastors may, for example, moderate the session of a congregation to which they are commissioned, administer sacraments, and officiate at marriages where permitted by law.

Many current Commissioned Pastors in the presbytery serve as sole pastors of smaller congregations. Others use their training to strengthen leadership roles in their home churches and throughout the presbytery generally.

Many candidates for the Commissioned Pastor Program complete their training while also employed full-time.

The cost of the webinar is covered by your per capita dollars. Register no later than October 5. Register by clicking here.
