Church Council

The church council is an elected group of men charged with the full operation and maintenance of our church. The council's work is centered in God's Word. It ensures that the Word of God is preached and taught to all members. The following is the positions for our church council and a brief description of their duties.

President - The president is chairman of all meetings of the congregation and council, and may be assigned other special duties. He is the general supervisor of the congregation's affairs.

Council Secretary – The secretary keeps all records of congregational and council meetings, which he submits at the next meeting for approval. He is responsible for all legal records and countersigns all legal documents.

He makes disbursements approved by the congregation, and smaller payments approved by the council. He submits monthly a written report of all receipts and disbursements to the council and quarterly to the congregation.

Evangelism Elder - The Evangelism Elder assists the Pastor in reaching out to the unchurched in our community.

Board of Education Chairman – The Board of Education Chairman’s duties are to report to council the progress of the Board of Education which oversees the education of our youth in God's Word.

All of the Elders have a ministry team which assists them in performing their duties. The Elders meet together with the Pastors monthly to review the congregation's business and to use God's guidance in performing their elected tasks. The council also meets once a month. Congregational input is always encouraged as they work to help meet our mission statement.

As men, woman and children united by the Gospel of Christ,
we reach out with the Gospel in order to make disciples of all nations;
and with the same Gospel, we nurture those
who are under our care in Christian discipleship.
