Our Elders, Deacons, Staff & Ministry Leaders

Our Convictions on Church Leadership

We believe the New Testament establishes two primary offices for leadership in the local church: elders and deacons. Elders are called to shepherd, oversee, and teach the church, providing spiritual leadership and care for the body. Deacons are called to serve the church by meeting practical needs and supporting the ministry, helping to protect and promote unity. Together, these distinct but complementary roles ensure that the church is faithfully led, well cared for, and equipped to carry out its mission.
