An Introduction

Welcome

The Association of Stated Clerks is a professional organization open to all stated clerks of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) — a place for fellowship, continuing education, and counsel with the Office of the General Assembly.

A stated clerk is an elected officer of a council of the church. Under the Book of Order (G-3.0104), the clerk of a presbytery or synod records the transactions of the council, keeps its rolls of membership and attendance, maintains the registers, and preserves its records. Each council keeps a full and accurate record of its proceedings, and those records are the property of the church in perpetuity (G-3.0107).
