Ministerial Members

Connecting with FMCSC’s Appointed Leaders

The Ministerial Members Directory provides a comprehensive listing of ordained elders, conference ministerial candidates, and appointed leaders serving throughout the Free Methodist Church in Southern California. This resource helps you connect with the diverse pastoral leadership serving our conference churches and ministries.

Our ministers bring a wealth of experience, spiritual gifts, and cultural perspectives to their congregations. Each leader plays a vital role in our conference’s mission “to bring wholeness to the world through healthy biblical communities of holy people multiplying disciples, leaders, groups, and churches.”

Elders

Within the Free Methodist Church, Elders are ministers who have shown to be gifted and lead by God not only to serve in the church, but to lead and train others to do the same. Elders serve in appointed roles throughout the church, often in unique ways.

Deacons

In response to God’s call on their lives, consecrated deacons offer servant-leadership in particular areas of congregational life, according to the gifts and graces God has given and they have developed. Complementing the work of elders, consecrated deacons serve the society by assisting and leading the membership to carry out its ministries to one another and the world.

Conference Ministerial Candidates

As local ministry leaders experience God’s call to expand their ministry, they may enter into conference ministerial candidacy, a process of personal, spiritual, and executive development that seeks to train effective leaders to embody the skills and personal qualities required in growing ministries.
