The Board of Elders
I'm a paragraph. Click here to add your own text and edit me. It's easy.
The Board of Elders functions primarily to safeguard the heart of the church. They do not oversee specific projects or ministry areas. Elders do not determine programming. Elders oversee the church as a whole. Specifically, elders are responsible for the following:
-
Insuring that the church operates in line with its God-given mission and values (Alignment issues)
-
Insuring that the teaching of the church is in line with the doctrinal statement of the church (Doctrinal issues)
-
Insuring that the church leadership and membership live and serve with basic Christian integrity (Integrity issues)
The Board of Elders shall also serve as an advisory counsel to the Senior Pastor.
