The Church of Scotland’s governing system is Presbyterian, which means that no one person or group within the Church has more influence or say than any other. The Church does not have one person who acts as the head of faith, as that role is the Lord God’s. Its supreme rule of faith and life is through the teachings of the Bible.
At a local level – the parish – the court is a kirk session. Kirk sessions oversee the local congregation and its parish and consist of elders presided over by a minister. Elders have a key leadership role in the life of Church of Scotland congregations.
In Stepps Parish Church our Kirk session consists of 12 active Elders and 2 non-active Elders.
Our Moderator is Rev. Monica Michelin-Salomon (Interim Moderator)
Our Session Clerk is Mrs. Lorraine Robertson
Our Kirk Session usually meets every 6-8 weeks with a short summer recess.
We are represented at Glasgow Presbytery by Mrs. Ailsa Macdonald
