The Administration Committee acts as the board of trustees for the Presbytery. This group oversees the financial life of the presbytery – i.e., property, investment, and financial management, and develops a budget for the presbytery. They also provide financial oversight for congregations as requested, assisting with financial management and corporate issues. This committee nominates one of its members to be elected Treasurer for the Presbytery. Committee members are assigned tasks according to their area of expertise.
Churches requiring presbytery support for commercial or residential lease matters are strongly encouraged to contact the Administration Committee at the earliest opportunity. Prompt communication ensures seamless processing and prevents potential delays that could impact critical contract timelines and lease agreements. Early engagement with our Committee allows for comprehensive review and timely resolution of all lease-related requirements.
Chairperson: Ruling Elder Martha Kadue, Esq. (Westwood Presbyterian Church)
Meetings: Twice between presbytery meetings, usually on Thursdays, 5:30 pm to 7:00 pm
