Board of Directors Report

Ben Clinkenbeard • March 10, 2025

We are blessed to have One Ministry with many moving parts.

Members of St. Peter’s,


We are blessed to have One Ministry with many moving parts, some of which include: weekly communal worship, senior ministry, high school and middle school youth ministry, young adults, athletics, adult Bible study groups, women’s ministry, Care Ministries, VBS, Kids of the Kingdom, Altar Guild, praise team, junior and adult choirs, preschool , PTL, Hope Sessions, Community of Care, day school, a principal, preschool director, two associate pastors and soon, God willing, a Senior pastor, coupled with many full and part-time staff, and many faithful volunteers who share the honor, the willingness and the joy of Connecting, Growing and Sharing our One St. Peter’s ministry. 


One of the main duties the St. Peter’s membership has given to the Board of Directors is maintaining and continually developing policies which better equip our One Ministry to function efficiently, by providing a clear, well-written governance structure on leadership, accountability and Christ-centered expectations. With the calling of a new Senior Pastor on the horizon and making every effort to make the transition seamless, your Board of Directors over the past several months has been working diligently to address our current policies and procedures, some of which may be confusing, unclear or not applicable to our current One Ministry here at St. Peter’s. For you to better grasp and appreciate the changes being brought to the Voter’s meeting in May, we are providing materials including copies of the proposed Bylaws changes and a list of Frequently Asked Questions pertaining to our new Policy Based Governance model in the Ministry Center. 


In addition, we will be holding a series of townhall meetings over the next few weeks, beginning March 16th. In preparation for the vote on the Bylaws change that we will bring to the congregation at the May Voters’ meeting, these town hall meetings will offer a time and place to discuss our change to a Policy Based Governance structure and why we feel NOW is the proper time to act. These town hall meetings will provide ample opportunity for discussion beforehand so that we will all arrive at the May Voters’ assembly ready and better prepared to vote. Praise be to God for all that He has provided for us here at St. Peter’s. Thank you!


Town hall Meeting Schedule:

  • Sunday, March 16th, 2025 - 9:00 am (Following the 8:00 Service)
  • Sunday, March 16, 2025 - 12:00 pm (Following the 10:30 Service)
