Ministry Teams

The Presbytery of Giddings-Lovejoy programatic needs are served by four ministry teams. The Ministry Teams monitor the on-going strategy and vision of the presbytery in their specific areas, create and coordinate the work of Action Teams, make recommendations to presbytery for actions related to their areas of expertise, participate in Partnership Team visits (Triennial Visits) with sessions, are attentive to needs articulated by representatives of the Ministry Areas, by presbytery staff, and by sessions and ministers. The Ministry Team moderators, or their designees, are voting members of Mission Council, and are the team liaisons with presbytery staff.
