Elders are chosen by the people.  Together with ministers of the Word and Sacrament, they exercise leadership, government, and discipline and have responsibilities for the life of a particular church... (G-6.0302 Book of Order)

The Session of First Presbyterian Church consists of 15 Elders, each serving three year terms. 

Elders should be persons of faith, dedication, and good judgment.  Their manner of life should be a demonstration of the Christian gospel, both within the church and in the world.  (G-6.0303 Book of Order)
