The Church Council

The Constitution of Eastminster United Church, revised in 2013 establishes that the congregation is governed in all local matters by a Church Council. The Council is elected annually to oversee and support the life and work of the congregation, its staff and all of its organizations.

The Council meets monthly. Leadership for the various areas of church life is provided by nine standing committees which meet as required to accomplish their mandates (normally monthly.)
