Session/Elders
The governing body at Cottonwood Presbyterian is the Session. The role of the Session is to govern, lead, and guide the congregation with spiritual discernment and prayer. The Session consists of the pastor and 9 Elders elected by the congregation, serving staggered 3-year terms. Three Elders rotate off each year and 3 new Elders join the Session each year. They each work with the various committees of the church: Administration, Building and Grounds, Discipleship Ministry, Finance and Stewardship, Mission, Vision and Planning, and Worship.

Deacons
The ministry of Deacons is one of compassion and service. At Cottonwood, the Board of Deacons consist of 10 members elected by the congregation, serving staggered 2-year terms. Five members rotate off the board each year and 5 new members come onto the board each year. Each Deacon is given a care list made up of 10 - 12 families within the church.  It is the Deacon's responsibility to provide pastoral care and support for their care list along with the pastor.
