CPC Board of Directors

The CPC Board of Directors are elected each year during the Annual Gathering. The Nominating Committee strives to have representation from all geographic sectors of the Conference. Officers of the Board, also elected at the Annual Gathering, are the Moderator, Moderator-elect, Immediate Past Moderator, Secretary, and Treasurer. Other members represent Conference ministry teams: Local Church and Educational Ministries, Wider Church Ministries, Justice and Witness Ministries, and Committee on Ministry. Filling out the membership of the Board are at-large members from across the Conference. Conference Staff also attend but do not vote. Meetings of the Board of Directors are open for attendance by any member of the Conference. 

Financial reports and updates are presented at each board meeting, along with reports and recommendations from the Conference Minister. Ministry Team representatives provide program reports for information purposes and general coordination by the Board where necessary. Legal and contractual matters are handled by the Board or, when appropriate, delegated to the Conference Minister.
