ELDER & DEACON AFFIRMATION
Elder and Deacon Affirmation voting will be held on Sunday, November 2.
Elders and deacons are key elements of Forum's leadership. Elders are called to be shepherds of the ministry—leading in humility, wisdom, and purity/blamelessness. At the same time, Deacons are set apart as individuals full of the Holy Spirit to help in the work of administering and helping to meet the needs of the people of the church.
