Introduction
Church officers will usually have a period of training to become familiar with the history
of the denomination, the history of the local church, the rules of the denomination, the rules of the local church, budgets, mission
priorities, and other general topics. Missing from this typical training is the details of how to carry out assignments.
These handbooks are "how to" manuals with very specific suggestions. Theology is minimized even though important. These were written
because I found a need from people for help in carrying out church responsibilities. Permission is given for these handbooks
to be used as is or in part for church use as long as the author is acknowledged.
There is no handbook for
Deacons since that varies from church to church. The Book of Order says deacons' ministry is to be one of service and what ever
else the session assigns.
1, Handbook for Clerks of Session in the Presbyterian Church (USA).
