Our Staff
The Faithful Service of God's
People
Paul said that those who hold offices
in the church are given gifts for the purpose of enabling all of
God's people to do ministry. It was he who gave some to be
apostles, and some to be pastors and teachers to prepare God's
people for works of service so that the body of Christ may be
built up. The leaders are given to the church for the
purpose of preparing every member to do the ministry.
