​Qualifications for Deacons
​Deacons likewise must be men of dignity, not double-tongued, or addicted to much wine or fond of sordid gain, but holding to the mystery of the faith with a clear conscience. And let these also first be tested; then let them serve as deacons if they are beyond reproach... Let deacons be husbands of only one wife, and good managers of their children and their own households. (3:8-10, 12)
Instructions:
 
Please prayerfully consider the man, before submitting the name privately to the church, using this form.
 
Once this nomination form below is completed please select submit button. The current deacon body, in conjunction with the pastoral staff, will begin a vetting process according to the biblical standards.
 
Other factors may determine why a man may not be elected to the office of deacon:
1. The unwillingness of the nominee to put in the necessary time and commitment.
2. Moral dilemma not commonly known.
3. Personal Convictions to include doctrinal differences.
4. Involvement in other organizations not compatible with Christianity and biblical beliefs.
5. Overall character and fitness not compatible with holding a Christian leadership position in the local church.
 
Each nominee will meet with members of the deacon body and pastoral staff and those nominees who complete the pre-election process, will be added to a list made available to the church body for nominations from the floor in the appropriate business meeting.
