Our Pastor
Jeff Wallace
Our United Methodist book of discipline also gives specific guidance to the role of the pastor of a local church. The discipline states that the pastor is to minister within the local church and to the world at large. The minister is to be the administration officer of the local church and to assume that the organizational concerns of the congregation are provided for. He or she is to oversee the total ministry of the local church in the nurturing ministry and in fulfilling its mission of witness and service in the world. The list of responsibilities includes overseeing the education program for all ages in the church. This does not mean that the pastor teaches all Bible Studies or Sunday School classes, obviously, but that the pastor insures that Christian education takes place in the local church.Jeff volunteers at Mead Foodbank.
