According to ECO polity each presbytery must establish a Ministry Partnership Team (MPT), which has broad responsibility for the pastoral relationships of the Presbytery. MPT has 9 members, all elected by the Presbytery, with membership being made up of an equal number of Elders and Pastors. No more than two members may be from the same congregation. MPT is available to any Session or Pastor of the Presbytery. In Rivers of Life MPT's responsibilities include the ordination and installation of pastors, pastoral transitions, congregation transfers, and others. Any questions can be directed to RiversOfLifeMPT@ecopresbytery.org.
