The Leadership of Peace Haven:
Elders:
Those who have been called of God to oversee and teach in the church are called elders, pastors, or overseers. These are three or more, interchangeable names (including the pastor) designating one and the same office in a biblically functioning church (Acts 20:17, 28; Eph. 4:11, 12; Titus 1:5, 7). In other words, elders together 'pastor' or shepherd the church body by exercising spiritual oversight over the church body -- teaching, admonishing, nurturing, praying, and discipling.

Deacons:
The word for 'deacon' means 'servant’. As such, deacons play a crucial role in the life of a healthy church. Specifically, deacons provide 'any kind of service that supplies the need of another person’. Being subject to the elders, deacons serve in the capacity of assisting the Elders / Pastors with administrative responsibilities, business affairs, and practical care of the church body (Acts 6:1-4). The church shall set apart, according to its need, men who evidence the scriptural qualifications for that role (Acts 6:1-7; 1 Tim. 3:8-13).
