The Church Board is made up of the ministerial team and nine elders who are discerned by the congregation. The Church Board monitors and encourages the congregation's spiritual life. Elders provide supervision, counsel and support for the ministerial team and seek to facilitate congregational decision making. Ministers meet with and serve as staff for each of the commissions. The entire Church Board meets quarterly with the chairs of all commissions, forming a Coordinating Council.
The Church Board also oversees the following groups:
Communications Committee
Young Adult Ministry Team
Listening and Reconciliation Team
Memorial Garden Committee
Historical Committee
By-laws Review Committee
Delegates to Indiana-Michigan conference and Mennonite Church USA assembly
The Church Board helps the congregation relate to Goshen College via the Amity Corporation, which owns and oversees our shared facility.
Elders in 2008-2009 are: Fanni Birky, Randy Clouse, Del Good (chair), Tom Gunden, Anne Hershberger, John Hershberger, Becky Horst, Sally Jo Milne, and Vicki Yoder.
