Yesterday, the congregation approved the three elder candidates. We've now moved from one pastor/elder and deacon board to four pastor/elders with deacons for specific areas of service. I praise God for what He has done and will do. I'm praying that the transition will go well and that these brothers will serve well together. I'm praying for grace for their families as this will undoubtedly require sacrifice on their part . I also pray for any members who may be wary of this change and pray they would become "aligned to the text" rather than tradition, however dear it may be.
