PRESBYTERY OF BALTIMORE STAFF

The Presbytery of Baltimore is guided in grace by Jesus Christ to develop healthy congregations and leaders; and, to provide the means by which we, as Presbyterians, may do together in mission what no one congregation can do alone. Through the work of its staff, the Presbytery seeks to fulfill the church’s mission by focusing on evangelism, justice, advocacy, community service, stewardship, Christian education, care of clergy and broad inclusivity within the church. It provides churches and their leaders with resources, guidance and assistance -- as well as -- support and information; funding: training; and a variety of other programs and services.
