Meet Our Leadership Team
Kirkliston Community Church is currently led by five elders (two of whom are employed as full time pastors) with the support of a group of Ministry Team Leaders.
The Elders
Elders are appointed, in accordance with scripture, from amongst the men in the fellowship who have been baptised on their personal confession of faith and who demonstrate the character and qualities outlined in passages such as 1 Timothy ch 3 v 1 – 7 and Titus ch 1 v 6 – 9.
What do elders do?
The elders’ primary role is to provide spiritual oversight to the church. This function is discharged specifically through the provision of pastoral care, guidance, teaching, and discernment of God’s will for the church. Elders may also be directly involved with specific ministries of the Church.
The model, as demonstrated by the Lord Jesus and emphasised by scripture, is that of servant leadership.
