Parish Leadership

At Church of Christ the King, our trustees, councils, and committees work together to support the life and mission of our parish. Through prayerful leadership and responsible stewardship, they help provide guidance, oversight, and support for parish ministries, initiatives, and operations in service of our mission:

To love and serve Christ our King.

Together, these dedicated parishioners help strengthen our faith community and extend Christ's love through worship, service, and outreach.

Trustees

Parish Trustees provide financial, administrative, and pastoral advice to the pastor while representing the broader interests of the parish community. The pastor recommends two trustees, who are then appointed by the Archbishop to serve two-year terms. 


Together, the Archbishop, the Vicar General, the pastor, and  the two trustees form the parish's corporate Board of Directors.
