Elders

Each year, we elect members of our congregation to lead us–individually we call them “elders” and collectively they are called the “Session.” Our Session (which also includes the installed pastors–who were also elected by the congregation) is responsible for making important decisions to keep us aligned with our church’s vision and values. 

Our current Session members are:

  • Carol Adrine
  • Jesse Bassett
  • Ian Cameron
  • Steve Chapman
  • Jim Crosby
  • Tim Cuff
  • Nancy Gillombardo
  • Jerry Parker
  • Ginger VanWagenen (Clerk of Session)
  • Ruth Wasem
  • Katie Wetherbee
  • Susan Wherley
  • Peg Zitzner

Session Minutes

The Session meeting minutes offer a window into how our church makes decisions, shares leadership, and stays aligned with our mission. These records reflect the ongoing work of discernment, care, and collaboration that shape the life of our community.

Fairmount Bylaws

Fairmount’s bylaws provide the framework for how we organize, make decisions, and share leadership as a community. They help ensure that our structure supports our mission — embodying God’s love and reclaiming our humanity — with transparency, accountability, and care.
