Ruling Elders
As a Presbyterian Church, HHPC is governed by an elected and ordained body of Ruling Elders that together are called the Session. The Session is tasked with overall leadership and guidance of the church. Elders are elected by the congregation to serve a three-year term. Each fall, the Nominating Committee accepts nominations of church members to serve in this capacity.
Deacons
The Board of Deacons is an elected and ordained body tasked with caregiving functions of the church. Deacons take the lead in connecting, caring, and in fellowship in the congregation. As with Elders, the Deacons are elected to serve three-year terms and nominations are made each fall.
