The Church Council formulates church policies and makes all program and financial decisions. Led by the Chair, the Church Council consists of heads of major committees, the Senior Pastor, the Treasurer, Assistant Treasurer and the Church Clerk. The Church Council began on July 1, 2016 as a merger of the Church Committee and the Board of Trustees functions.
