Are You Ready to Lead in 2025?
The biblical qualifications for church leaders are all characteristics of godliness and giftedness that are proven over time; an individual's character becomes plainly evident through long-term patterns of behavior. Terms for all of the positions listed below would begin once approved by the congregation at the Annual Meeting in June, 2025.
Don't forget: You can nominate yourself as well! All nominees must be members of Valley Community Baptist Church.
