Leadership
Under Shepherds of God's Flock
Called to Serve
Christ Presbyterian Church Burke is led by a plurality of elders and served by our deacons — men called and examined according to Scripture (1 Timothy 3; Titus 1) to shepherd and serve this congregation.
Elders
Elders shepherd the flock. Together they hold the government and spiritual oversight of the church: teaching the Word, watching over the congregation's doctrine and life, praying for and visiting the people, and caring especially for the sick, the hurting, and the children of the church.
Deacons
Deacons serve. Following the example of the Lord Jesus, they minister to those in need, the sick, and the distressed, and they care for the church's gifts and property, all under the oversight of the Session.
