The elders of First Christian Church are a volunteer body of servant leaders who seek to serve the church by providing pastoral care and spiritual guidance. One of the primary ministries of our elders is to provide pastoral care to church members. While their care can take on many forms, here are some examples of how they serve:
- Providing spiritual counsel and care
- Visiting the homebound
- Visiting those in the hospital or other care/health centers
- Providing communion to those unable to attend worship
- Offering prayer support (both in person and in spirit)
If you would like to receive pastoral care from our elders, please contact the chair of our elders through the e-mail button provided. They are also available for prayer and conversation on Sunday mornings after service. They can be identified by the name tags they wear each week.
