Description
“The Eldership is a God-given and anointed body without which the Church cannot function or grow. We cannot stress enough our belief in, and commitment to, the Elders’ role as incorporated within our Church. The URC Manual and this booklet are written out of a desire to help local churches find the best possible Eldership to fulfil God’s purposes.
“The call to Eldership is a high calling and although it is a difficult job to do, it is essential for the good health and direction of the church.”
In this revised and updated booklet, GEAR attempts to make a radical and biblical analysis of Eldership as it is practised in the URC, and to offer suggestions that will lead to a renewed and lively Church. This booklet has been written and published by GEAR, the Group for Evangelism and Renewal within the United Reformed Church, www.gear.org.uk
