Eldership in the Presbyterian Church won’t be the same for more than 80 people who joined together in Grande Prairie, Alta., in late May 2011. “Eldership Unleashed” was a conference organized by a team of people from across B.C. and Alberta. Bruce Fraser, a passionate ruling elder from the Presbyterian Church of Aotearoa, New Zealand, and a synod mission advisor, was the guest speaker for the weekend. He challenged the participants to be unleashed for the ministry that God has for them and to see their call in a much greater way. The message was reinforced by workshops that equipped elders and leaders for ministry in their congregations and communities.
The elders have been unleashed! The church will never be the same…
