This team of Leaders work together to provide a safe environment for our teens to learn and grow in their walk with Christ. All of our leaders work alongside each other to produce fun and intentional experiences that show the love of Christ to our teens and guide them through their middle and high school years.

There is a group of elders who are responsible for the health of the church and the direction of the church.  While staff and lay leaders plan and implement our activities and ministries, the elders are ultimately responsible for overseeing the church.  The most important responsibility of the elders is to pray for the members of our congregation.  Our elders strive to live their lives following the example of Christ so that they can be an example to others.  They love the Gathering, they pray for the Gathering, and they are responsible for the direction of the Gathering.  Some of our elders are administrative elders who meet monthly to pray for the church, discuss the needs of the church, and to discuss how to be good stewards of the resources of the church.  Our elders love the Gathering and are committed to helping the Gathering love our community and share the gospel with our community.
