MEET OUR LEADERSHIP
"Whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,
and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all.
For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve,
and to give his life as a ransom for many."
Mark 10:43-45
These servant-leaders oversee the vital needs of the church body. They are responsible for the spiritual nature and vision of the church, ministering the Word of God, praying for the congregation, stewardship of finances, and the day-to-day ministries and operation of the church.
