No, the Presbyterian and Episcopal churches differ in form of worship as well as in form of government. Episcopal worship follows the pattern of the Mass, with the focus centering on the Eucharist, while Presbyterian worship follows the Reformed tradition with the focus centering on the preaching of the Word. The Episcopal Church is organized in a hierarchy with authority moving upward from deacons and priests to bishops and archbishops. The Presbyterian Church is governed by elected and ordained elders, including both laity and clergy. Church members elect elders to represent them at congregational (local,) synod (state/regional) and national governing bodies.
