Our Elders

Elders Jack & Elaine Flannery

Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which He hath purchased with His own blood.
— Acts 20:28

The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:  Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;
— 1 Peter 5:1-2

Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the Word and doctrine.
— 1 Timothy 5:17

Elder Jack & Fred

At The Church on Higher Ground, we have elected elders who embody the characteristics portrayed in the above Bible quotes. These folks lead by example and share their experiences with the congregation.   Our elders are caring people who want to help everyone reach out to the Lord.

Each elder has their own story to tell about who they are and how they came to their walk with God. We can all learn from their experiences.  The pages beneath this one will introduce you to our elders.
