The Church of Scotland, which is Presbyterian in structure; also other presbyterian churches such as the Free Church of Scotland, the United Free Church of Scotland, and other even smaller denominations. They all have a body of elders, known as a kirk session, who oversee the running of the church, and each have responsibility for groups of church members, usually geographical. Another body, variously known as a deacons court or congregational board, is composed of elected deacons and runs the financial and other more mundane aspects of church operation.
