2019 Elder Ordination Service

Last fall, our church family nominated five men who they believed fulfilled the biblical qualifications of eldership (Titus 1:5-9, 1 Timothy 3:1-7, 1 Peter 5:1-4). Today, we gather together to support them as they are ordained, and in turn they promise to shepherd and care for us.



While modern life does not have us encounter shepherds very often, it is still a powerful image of what our elders and pastors are called to do. They are called to oversee our physical and spiritual well being, they are to be examples of what it means to follow Jesus, and they are to help us stay on the correct path. 



Pray for these men as they fulfill the calling God has placed on their lives.
