Ready to grow as a leader and strengthen your church community? The Presbytery of East Iowa invites you to our in-person Ruling Elder & Boundary Training, designed to empower, equip, and inspire ruling elders and congregants alike. Whether you’re new to your role or a seasoned leader, this training is for you! Attend the full day or join us for just the session that meets your needs. While in-person is strongly recommended, we plan to provide a Zoom option for those who would not be able to participate otherwise.

Who Should Attend?
Ruling Elder training is designed for new and experienced ruling elders serving on sessions. Boundary Training is open to ruling elders and congregants alike and is designed to fulfill Book of Order requirements.
While pastoral leaders are encouraged to attend alongside their ruling elders and congregants, please note that the boundary training does not fulfill presbytery requirements for pastoral leaders. You may reach out to Bobby Outterson-Murphy for access to free online coursework options through Praesidium.
