Organized by St. Andrew’s Hall – Centre for Missional Leadership
St. Andrew’s Hall will offer a free, online Sacrament Elder course designed for Ruling Elders serving congregations without an ordained minister. The course equips participants to apply to their Presbytery for permission to administer the Sacraments in their local congregation (Book of Forms 201.4).
How does it work?
Participants receive three video recordings to watch in advance of the live teaching time on December 6th and short quizzes at the end of each video. We then gather synchronously online on December 6th at 9:00am (PST) for teaching and conversation. Participants who complete the course receive a certificate from St. Andrew’s Hall, and can the apply to their local Presbytery to be recognized as a Sacrament Elder. Thank you in advance for sharing word of this opportunity in your Presbytery. Please encourage interested Elders to apply directly by emailing: deansoffice@standrews.edu – subject line: Sacrament Elder Course registration.
