The ministry of the Elder has its origin in the New Testament. Elders share with the Minister of Word and Sacrament in the pastoral care and spiritual leadership of the local church, taking counsel together in the Elders’ Meeting for the whole congregation, and each having a group of members entrusted to their care.
Eldership is a ministry of the church and Elders are ordained. They are inducted to serve a particular congregation, sometimes for a fixed period of time.
