Our Elders
The elders of First Presbyterian are men and women elected to serve and lead the church in its mission for three-year terms.
Please know you can reach out to our elders with any questions, encouragements, or concerns. Each elder serves in one of the nine Session committees and can answer questions you may have in those ministry areas.
Our Clerk of Session, Lori Lembke, serves alongside our elders by recording our meetings and assisting our Pastor in moderating those meetings.
