Nominating Committee

Once a year we have nominations for Elders and Deacons. Our process involves a committee who will accept candidates, then those candidates will be prayerfully considered by our current leadership, and then the congregation will have an opportunity to vote on the candidates for 2023-2024. Please remember the following steps in the process if you would like to nominate a candidate:

  • Prayerfully read the Biblical qualifications in 1 Timothy 3:1-13 and Titus 1:6-9.
  • If you would like to nominate someone who you believe meets these qualifications, submit their name to one of our nominating committee members. (DO NOT GO TO THE PERSON DIRECTLY)
  • The nominating committee will submit their name to the current leadership for prayerful consideration, and then contact the candidate for consideration.
  • If the candidate accepts the nomination, he will be voted on in a congregational meeting after the congregation has had an opportunity to prayerfully consider the nominees, which will be announced 2 weeks before the congregational meeting.

Members for the 2023-2024 church year are: 

  • Dennis Wilson, Committee Lead
  • Mark Amos, Elder
  • Mike Harbin, Elder
  • Paul Griffin, Deacon
  • Blake Helms, Deacon
  • Tom Gantt. Member at Large
  • Craig Kingston, Senior Minister

Please speak to one of these individuals if you would like to nominate someone to serve as an Elder or Deacon.
