ELDERS

Herbert Sibanda
First Elder

"Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord". James 5:14

Welcome to the Elders' web page. The word Elder is sometimes used to refer to those who are senior in age but not in this case; we'd like to think so anyway, because we are all relatively young. Church Elders are elected by the members of the local congregation and are accountable to them. Our role is primarily that of providing spiritual leadership to the body of Christ.

Our Biblical mandate says; "Be Shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, serving as overseers – not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not greedy for money but eager to serve; not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock. And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that will never fade away." 1 Peter 5:2-4

Our aim is for each member of the church family "To Know Christ." Matthew 7:23 give the only reason why Christ reject any of us; "I never knew you." . Our objectives for every member having a personal relationship with Christ are as follows;

• Know the members (Visitation programme)
• Increasing the membership (Through Bible Study & Baptism)
• Spirit-filled leadership (Leading by example, provision of training)
• Preparedness (Bible teachings on the return of Jesus Christ)
