Our Elders

God has invested the elders with the responsibility for the leadership of the local church, which includes overseeing the work of the church (its worship, evangelism, edification, and equipping); protecting the church from error in doctrine and practice; and making sure God's people are being fed through accurate and insightful biblical teaching.  The elders work as a team and strive to discern God's plan for LCC through regular meetings for prayer and the study of Scripture.
