| | Presbyterian Church in America |
| | The birth date of the Presbyterian Church in America is December 4, 1973. | | | The local churches also send commissioners--elders and ministers--to the highest court of the church, the "General Assembly." The assembly meets annually and enables all the churches to have a voice in guiding the spiritual and practical affairs of the entire denomination. | | | The form of church government we believe is most biblical is called "Presbyterian." This means the local churches are governed by "presbyters," or elders, who are elected by the people. |
