Elders

Elders are designated as overseers of the local congregation (Acts 14:23, Acts 20:17-28, Titus 1:5-14). There is no central, earthly headquarters of the church and no organization superior to the elders of each local congregation. Elders are sometimes called bishops (Philippians 1:1, 1 Timothy 3:1-2, Titus 1:5-7), overseers (Acts 20:28), or pastors (Ephesians 4:11). All terms are synonymous for the same office.

Deacons

Deacons are servants appointed to perform specific works of the church. (Acts 6:3, I Timothy 3:8-13). As elders are the overseers of the congregation, deacons serve under the oversight of the elders.

Evangelist

Evangelists, also called preachers or ministers, preach the word of God. (2 Timothy 4:2-5). Like deacons, evangelists serve under the oversight of the elders.
