As many churches welcome a new class of elders, deacons and committee members, it seems like a good time to share some resources for training! Please forward this info to new leaders as appropriate.
Elder and Deacon Training:
Theocademy – This is the gold standard for general training for Elders and Deacons in the PCUSA. If you haven’t seen these yet, now’s a good time!
Church Treasurers:
Church Treasurer’s Manual – I don’t have much experience as a Treasurer, but I believe our Presbytery’s bookkeeper, Joe Nixon, has said this manual is excellent.
Committee Members:
Taking Great Minutes – A video on how to take minutes that should be useful for anyone given that responsibility on a church committee. Less than 10 minutes long!
