Calvary Assembly is governed by a group of men known as Elders. The duties of the Elders are to "oversee" the Church as prescribed in the New Testament. Their responsibilities and duties include, but are not limited to, directing all of the spiritual and business activities of the Church.

The authority of the Elders in the Church is held as a body, and not as individuals. The Elders shall make every effort to act in unity with the Holy Spirit and one another, with fasting and prayer. All decisions of the Elders shall require the approval of at least two-thirds (2/3) of all of the Elders.

Qualifications of Elders: Each Elder must be a male voting member of the Church who meets Biblical standards for eldership (including but not limited to I Timothy 3:1-7). Those Elders who are paid staff members of the Church shall at all times comprise less than fifty percent (50%) of the total number of Elders.

The Elders have been contemplating new venues for providing the congregation with insight and visibility into what is happening at Calvary. As a result a site has been created for the purpose of keeping the body aware of the various issues that the Elders and Pastors face on an ongoing basis so that you can pray for us as we make vital decisions. We do not take our role lightly and earnestly fast and pray over the decisions needing to be made. Please check out the site at CalvaryElders.Blogspot.com and feel free to post comments and/or questions. The Elders will periodically place abbreviated editions of our meeting minutes as well as post articles written by various Elders.
