Eldership Team

Our Eldership Team, together with the Vicar, is a group of members called out from our congregation, approved by the PCC, and, having been members of the old Ministry Leadership Team, were commissioned by the Bishop. They work with delegated authority from the PCC to oversee the pastoral and leadership work of St Matthew's. As well as discerning the need and direction of ministry and mission, they are all involved with leading services and preaching and some have the bishop's permission to take Communion by Extension.
