Advisory Board
Over the next few years, Sanctuary Church will be working towards raising up a plurality of qualified men who can serve as local elders to help carry out the ministry of word and prayer. We want men who meet the character qualifications of 1 Timothy 3:1-7 and have a demonstrated track record within this new local church. We also want to follow the biblical wisdom of Paul to Timothy to not be too quick to raise up elders (1 Tim. 5:22). While we give time for elders to emerge, we will have an advisory board in place who will help give support, care, and accountability, while serving as a sounding board for the lead pastor.
