MEET OUR TEAM

Paul instructs Timothy to find faithful men who can share the leadership of the church (2 Tim. 2: 1–2). After establishing church plants, Paul demonstrated a process whereby elders were appointed. In Titus 1:5, Paul’s strategy for Crete was for Titus to “put what remained into order, and appoint elders in every town.” Initially, these church plants existed without a body of elders. While we don’t know exactly how much time elapsed, we do know selecting elders came later. And it came slowly. At One Family, we will take heed to Paul’s counsel to Timothy to “not be hasty” in establishing elders (1 Tim. 5:22). Therefore, Pastor Melo has established an Advisory Team of Godly experienced men that he will lean on for wisdom, accountability and support as he works towards identifying and appointing future elders for the Church.
