Living To Serve Him
At New Beginning, we believe in what the Bible teaches concerning leadership roles within the local church:
Concerning Pastor, Elders and Deacons.
Elders
Our Elders share the responsibility for the direction, growth and maturing of the body of believers. Under the authority of New Beginning Church they watch over the spiritual life of the church, oversee all aspects of the ministry of the church, and serve as the church’s “legal trustee” ensuring all functions to fulfill these responsibilities are taken care of.
John is retired from the Technology industry and serves as our Chairman.
Harold Graduated in 1972 from Oklahoma City University with a degree in Marketing and is retired as an Owner/Operator of a Fast Food Franchise. He now serves on our Board of Elders.
