"In those days when the number of disciples was increasing, the Grecian Jews among them complained against the Hebraic Jews because their widows were being overlooked in the daily distribution of food. So the Twelve gathered all the disciples together and said, "It would not be right for us to neglect the ministry of the word of God in order to wait on tables. Brothers, choose seven men from among you who are known to be full of the Spirit and wisdom. We will turn this responsibility over to them and will give our attention to prayer and the ministry of the word."" - Acts 6:1-4
Therefore, in accord with Biblical precedent and Christian freedom and love, the constitution and bylaws of St. John describe the duties of the Board of Elders in this place:
July 1, 2024 - Dear Friends in Christ It’s an exciting time of year. Lots of things going on in life that keep us busy! As we go through the summer and all the things we have going on, let’s remember to take time for church, our church family and especially Christ, who always has time for us! Invite a friend, a family member or someone who is lonely to join us as we take time for Christ!
In Christ’s Love, The Elders
