Elder Process

How Does One Become an Elder?

We want to thank you for expressing your interest in becoming an elder of Northview Community Church.

Together with you, we humbly acknowledge that the desire to serve as an elder within the local church is a calling of God. To this end, we as the Discernment Committee want to walk with you through this important process by:

- Providing you with all the information you need to fully understand the eldership role.
- Praying with you and for you that God’s will can be clearly discerned.
- Entering into and facilitating discussion that allows both you and the Church leadership the opportunity of an informed, Spirit-led decision.

Following are the steps required that you can use as a checklist as you proceed with the discernment process. Please give careful and prayerful consideration to each of the materials provided in the “Elders Discernment Packet”. Process_Elder_Discernment.pdf
