Kirk Session meeting

The Kirk Session (which means 'church meeting') gives spiritual leadership to the congregation. It is made up of the Minister who is also the ‘Teaching Elder’ and a number of ‘Ruling Elders’ chosen by the congregation. The Kirk Session makes prayerful decisions on the congregation's priorities, oversees the various church groups and activities, ensures pastoral care is provided to the members of the congregation, has responsibility for the Sacraments and takes leadership in serving both the church family and the local community.
