The Leadership Council consists of 12 persons composed of the Senior Pastor and 11 members of the
church, not including the position of a non-voting secretary. The 11 members serve three-year terms in rolling succession. Persons may serve two successive three-year terms; individuals rotating off may serve again after a one-year gap.
The LC empowers staff to manage ongoing church operations. The LC focuses on:
• Deepening faith and growing in love and service
• Deploying resources for the larger goals of the church
• Consulting with the Senior Pastor in guiding the
congregation
• Maintaining an outward, strategic, future-focused vision
• Distinguishing clearly between LC and staff roles
• Acting proactively rather than reactively
The LC will meet bimonthly on the third Monday of that month, unless more frequent meetings are needed.
Open Meetings: All LC meetings are open to members of the congregation, except during the Staff/Parish portion of the meeting.
If you have questions regarding the Council and its work, please reach out to Chuck Erickson, The Council Chair.
