Our Team of Elders and Trustees
WCC is led by a board of seven elders and trustees, combined. Our elders function in a pastoral role, serving the physical and spiritual needs of the congregation. Our trustees fulfill the legal requirement of New York State and serve to make important financial decisions concerning the church. Dave and Faith are blessed to have a solidly unified leadership team with which to pastor WCC.
