Members of Presbytery represent all the congregations in the presbytery - a minister and elder from each - together with other Church of Scotland ministers living or working outside the United Kingdom and elders appointed to ensure a balance of equal numbers of ministers and elders.

The presbytery meets twice a year (in March and October) over a three day period, being hosted by each of the European congregations in turn.

The most recent meeting was in Gibraltar (6th to 9th March 2020); the next meeting will be in Budapest from 9 to 11 October 2020.
