Leadership
Our Elders & Deacons
The elders are undershepherds called to govern the church according to the Word of God and to address the spiritual needs of members in the congregation. Our elders continue to carry on the practice of Family Visits (an annual visit of the elders to the homes of our members to discuss matters of faith). They are responsible to judge the preaching on Sundays to ensure that it remains faithful to the Word of God.
The deacons carry out the work of mercy ministry within the congregation and care for the many needs that arise due to illness, unemployment, hardships, and distress. Our deacons also keep up contact with the many outreach & service organizations that we contribute to so that our charitable giving is directed to places of need.
“I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom: preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching.”
2 Timothy 4:1-2
