Don Shelton Anita Shelton Ministerial Director Secretary Ministerial Department
The Ministerial Department provides the local congregation with pastoral resources. The department director ministers to the individual pastors in the role of a pastor's pastor to help enhance their ability to serve. The department's goals are to provide an atmosphere in which pastors may be used of God as dynamic channels for the Holy Spirit and to offer opportunities for them to improve their skills and grow as leaders because everything in this work rises and falls with leadership. The pastor has been appointed to be the spiritual leader of the local congregation by the conference committee. It is the pastor's function to coordinate all the evangelism activities that present the gospel message of Jesus Christ to the communiy. By sermons, visitation, counseling, and earnest prayers in behalf of those in need, the pastor sets the example for church members and leads the way by inspiring the members to be a truly caring, soul-winning body of people. The pastor's highest work is to develop the local church into a training center for Christian service. It is important that the pastor find ways to involve each church member in some phase of church activity so that everyone possible can participate in the joy of being a part of the team.
