The Presbytery of the Twin Cities Area is looking for ministers, elders and young adults who are interested in serving as commissioners to the 219th General Assembly held July 3-10, 2010 in Minneapolis.

The PTCA is entitled to send four elder commissioners, four minister commissioners and one young adult advisory delagate to GA.  Going to General Assembly here in Minneapolis is not as exciting as going to San Jose, but it is an opportunity to participate and experience Presbyterian government in action, and a chance to meet and fellowship with Presbyterians from around the United States. 

If you are interested in being nominated, please fill out one of the forms below and send it in to the Presbytery office by close of business on December 3.  Elections for the commissioners will take place at the January 2010 Presbytery meeting. 

You can turn in a completed form and submit it by mail or email. 

Submitted applications can be sent by mail to:
