Leadership Board

The Leadership Board is the governing body of the church. In addition to presenting the budget to the congregation, the Board also sets policies and broad goals for the Lead Pastor to execute with the staff. The Board monitors and encourages the Lead Pastor as he leads the church toward those goals. Leadership Board members are selected by the Nomination Team and serve a three-year term with the option of a second term.
