Jesus is the head of the church. Â Jesus has called elders to shepherd the local church (1 Timothy 3: 1-7, Titus 1: 5-9, 1 Peter 5: 1-5). Â This means elders lead the church in vision, teaching, pastoral care, and church discipline. Â Deacons are servant leaders in a local church (1 Timothy 3: 8-13, Acts 6: 1-6). Â Deacons assist the elders and serve in hospitality, food ministries, serving of communion, benevolence fund, property needs, finance, and personnel. Â Our ministry leaders aim to equip members to make disciples in their areas.
