BOARD OF TRUSTEES

A church board of trustees manages the physical, financial, and legal matters of a congregation. Their main job is to protect the church property, oversee financial resources, and ensure the organization follows state and federal nonprofit laws so the pastoral staff can focus on ministry. 

Acts 6:1-7

In those days when the number of disciples was increasing, the Hellenistic Jews[a] among them complained against the Hebraic Jews because their widows were being overlooked in the daily distribution of food. 2 So the Twelve gathered all the disciples together and said, “It would not be right for us to neglect the ministry of the word of God in order to wait on tables. 3 Brothers and sisters, choose seven men from among you who are known to be full of the Spirit and wisdom. We will turn this responsibility over to them 4 and will give our attention to prayer and the ministry of the word.”
