Official Board

A group of men and women, Deacons and Trustees, who have been elected to serve as leaders of Antioch.  They meet monthly to discuss the overall functions of the church.  The pastor is the executive leader and provides the spiritual and organizational vision of the church.  The deacons assist the pastor in all spiritual ministries i.e., enhancing the worship service, teaching, witnessing, prayer, visiting the sick, etc. Trustees of Antioch are spiritual leaders, as well, who are committed to the programs and services, the upkeep of the property and the management of the finances. The two bodies help to govern the fiduciary responsibilities of the church under the administrative leadership of the pastor.  This group reports all findings to the decision making congregation.
