ELDER ORDINATION

During the past year, North Shore Church adapted a new constitution that switched our governing board from Deacon led to Elder led. Our new elders (Mark Alleger, Gary Chaney, Bill Verschay) were selected through a thorough process and approved during the October business meeting. 

This Sunday, January 4, 2015, we will officially pray over and ordain them. Please join us as we celebrate this great occasion.

Titus 1:6-9 "An elder must be blameless, faithful to his wife, a man whose children believe and are not open to the charge of being wild and disobedient. Since an overseer manages God’s household, he must be blameless—not overbearing, not quick-tempered, not given to drunkenness, not violent, not pursuing dishonest gain. Rather, he must be hospitable, one who loves what is good, who is self-controlled, upright, holy and disciplined. He must hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine and refute those who oppose it."
