God gives people to serve His church and He gives them gifts to achieve that.
He empowers us all to work together, as a very mixed group, to help every believer grow into all that God has designed them to be.
From among the members, He calls certain men to be elders, to ‘pastor/shepherd’ the church – through teaching, caring and having oversight (Acts 20:17-38, Tit 1:5-9, 1 Tim 3:1-7, 1 Pet 5:1-4).
We then have numerous men and women playing senior leadership roles (deacon-level roles) across the church, from ministries to staff etc…
Our trustees also play the invaluable role of giving us a wealth of professional and practical insight and experience, particularly for staffing, finance and premises hire.
We then receive encouragement and strength from our wider family in Commission.
We currently have 7 elders (also known as pastors), who are responsible before God for the overall welfare of the church. They have been recognised by the church and appointed (with input from Commission) to provide oversight and care for those who are committed members of Westminster Chapel.
Alongside their shared responsibilities, each of them plays a part in one of the ‘ABC vision teams’. See below for which of those teams they participate in
Our wonderful staff team serve the church with their numerous gifts and skills. We have a mix of part-time and full-time people who do a lot of the day to day stuff that helps keep our ministries going.
As you can see, we have a variety of gifts and roles on the team – if you want to get in touch with anyone about their area of expertise just click their name and send them an email.
