Two sacraments are celebrated in the Presbyterian Church - Baptism and Eucharist. Baptisms are scheduled by appointment with the Session and are normally celebrated at a time when the community gathers to worship.
Eucharist is celebrated on festival days and on the first Sunday of each month through Ordinary Time. A schedule of dates can be found here.
In addition to the sacraments of Baptism and Eucharist, other ordinances are celebrated under the supervision of the Session or larger governing body. These include marriages, funerals, ordination of elders and deacons and ordination to Ministry of the Word and Sacrament.
