The Elders are committed to maintaining the spiritual well-being of the congregation while supporting the spiritual growth of the elders including presiding at the communion table and shepherding our members as we explore who we are and what we are called to do out in the world and to seek a new minister to join in on the journey.
Our church family is pleased to welcome and congratulate our newly installed elders!
In a small church like ours, we know that serving as an elder is more than a title—it’s a calling. It means being willing to listen, pray, lend a helping hand, and walk alongside others in faith. We are grateful for these faithful individuals who have answered God’s call to serve our congregation.
Please join us in praying for them as they begin this important ministry. May the Lord bless them with wisdom, patience, strength, and a servant’s heart as they help guide and care for our church family.
We are thankful for their commitment and look forward to all that God will do through their leadership. Congratulations, and may God richly bless you in the days ahead!
“Shepherd the flock of God that is among you, exercising oversight… being examples to the flock.” — 1 Peter 5:2-3
