Grace Christian Church is an elder-led church. The elders are responsible for providing spiritual leadership to the Church, including: prayer, teaching, general oversight, strategic direction, equipping of Ministry Team Leaders, shepherding, and spiritual protection of the congregation. Each member of the team, with the exception of the Senior Pastor, is called by the congregation to serve a 3-year term. Members are selected for spiritual, personal, and relational maturity, along with special gifts or skills needed by the team. After an elder serves two consecutive three-year terms, there must be a minimum of a one-year break in his or her service on the Board. Normally, there is a minimum of three and a maximum of nine Elders called out to serve each year.
