Deacons

At times determined by the Elders, active Partners of the Church will be given the opportunity to nominate any man, who is an active Partner of the Church, as a candidate for Deacon. Candidates will then be selected by unanimous approval of the Elders and presented to active Partners at least one month prior to any church meeting called by the Church. Any active Partner with reason to believe a candidate is unqualified for the office of Deacon should express such concern to the Elders. At the scheduled meeting, Deacon candidates will be appointed by an affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of active Partners present and voting.
