Holston Presbytery Opportunities

Holston Presbytery is the group of 67 churches, including Timber Ridge, in northeast Tennessee, stretching from Strawberry Plains to Bristol to Roan Mountain. Together with the other congregations in the Presbytery, we're able to engage in ministries and help each other out in ways that extend beyond a single congregation. The majority of those ministries are accomplished through committees made up of members of those 67 churches, and YOU have a chance to be a part of that. From helping churches in transition between ministers to planning middle and high school retreats, or assisting ministry candidates in navigating seminary, overseeing Five Cents a Meal distributions to local and international hunger ministries, or offering expertise with budgets or personnel, there are opportunities for everyone in ministry with the larger church. You can read about all the different committees here and fill out a self-nomination form.

Have questions about what's involved or the time committment? Ask any of our folks who have served the Presbytery in recent years, including:

  • Wanda Bowers (Committee on Ministry)
  • Charles Brumley (Committee on Ministry and Camp Committee)
  • Olivia Marenco (Campus Ministry Committee and Youth Council)
  • Brian Wyatt (Committee on Ministry, Preparation for Ministry, Camp Committee, Youth Council)
  • Emily Morrell, Caitlin Crocker, Hannah Crocker, Spencer Morrell, Ethan Carter, Sarah Wyatt (Youth Council)
