Without Leadership, our church would not exist. The bills would not be paid, the broken things would not be repaired and most importantly - the Body would not be fed! (spiritually, that is) We need our leaders to guide, protect and support the flock. This page is dedicated to them as a small thanks for their dedication to our Lord and Savior!! God Bless those who praise His name.

An elder must be blameless, the husband of but one wife, a man whose children believe and are not open to the charge of being wild and disobedient. Since an overseer is entrusted with God's work, he must be blameless--not overbearing, not quick-tempered, not given to drunkenness, not violent, not pursuing dishonest gain. Rather he must be hospitable, one who loves what is good, who is self-controlled, upright, holy and disciplined. He must hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine and refute those who oppose it." (Titus 1:6-9)
