WHAT WE'RE ALL ABOUT

Westside Bible Fellowship is led by Elders, Deacons, and other leaders. 

We believe the New Testament teaches a plurality of elders as the model of church leadership. Elders serve as pastors or spiritual shepherds and are responsible to oversee, shepherd, guard, and lead the flock by both example and instruction (Acts 20:17-35, 1 Peter 5:1-2). They emphasize the ministry of the Word, prayer, discipleship, and the spiritual health of God’s people. They do not function primarily as administrators or managers. They are raised up by the Holy Spirit and recognized by the body for the work they are doing and for their qualifications as described in 1 Timothy 3:1-7 and Titus 1:5-9.

Deacons assist with many significant physical and spiritual ministries in the assembly. Their responsibilities may include maintenance and improvement of facilities and equipment, purchasing of supplies, assisting needy members of the body, and financial disbursement and record keeping. They are recognized by the body for their spiritual qualifications as described in 1 Timothy 3:8-13.

The Women's Ministries team serves by overseeing ministries to women at Westside and to help women flourish in their relationship with Christ. The Children's Ministries Coordinator provides leadership and coordination for all ministries to children, including the nursery and Sunday School, to help kids develop a personal relationship with Christ.
