Our Team

The following individuals serve our church family in various leadership roles. Throughout the New Testament, many people played vital roles in proclaiming the gospel and strengthening the church, most often identified simply as brothers, sisters, and fellow workers. Within our churches, we aim to:
  1. Recognize and affirm the gifts God has given each person.
  2. Clarify how those gifts serve the body through entrusted responsibilities.

Elders + Wives

Our conviction from Scripture is that churches should function like households and that the primary responsibility of caring for those spiritual families should be entrusted to qualified men whose individual lives and families serve as examples to the church. Elders provide shepherding care, teaching, and governmental oversight to the church.  

Because they do this through the ministry of their families, we specifically recognize how elders' wives  partner with them in this work. Each couple does this through their own unique set of gifts and season of life.
