Message From The Elders

Dear Village Church,

It is an honor to serve you alongside our pastor, shepherding, praying and worshiping together. In the past, we have met as Elders twice monthly: once as our official meeting, the other praying and sharing with each other about what we are reading while spending time together talking and growing together. With the many items we currently need to discuss, we intend to begin having both of our monthly meetings as official Elder meetings with agenda items. We will, however, be breaking our meetings into two parts, the first being a time of prayer and going through our agenda. During the second portion of our meetings we will meet as Elders only, to continue that “growth group” format we have used in the past.

We believe by meeting more often we can have fewer items on our agenda, allowing us to spend time together as a group discussing things like mission, vision, and values, as well as our personal lives. As in the past, our meetings are open for you to join us for our agenda meeting time. The second portion of our meeting is not open churchwide. We believe that private meeting time is important for us to help us become a band of brothers due to both having newly elected men and the recent change in our chairmanship. Our meetings are the first and third Thursdays of each month starting at 6:00 pm.

As always we value your input anytime and ask for your prayer for us as we serve together.

The Elders of Village Church
