As First Presbyterian Church of Jasper re-organizes within the Presbyterian Church in America denomination we are a Mission Church.  This means that our current leadership is made up of men from other churches who have been trained and ordained to serve as Elders.  As we proceed in our growth and our numbers increase our members will nominate candidates from our own congregation, who will go through the preparation and testing process.  Those who are successful must also sense a call of the Lord to be set apart to serve this body.  

The members of our Session (Elder board) is transitioning.  New images will be added as they are available.
