Who is the pastor of Kehilat T’nuvah?
In the Apostolic scriptures (New Testament), the pattern for the congregation is laid out. Here, the regular example is that of plural leadership, that is, one man is not designated as “the only pastor” or “the only leader.” In fact, Yeshua is the “Head Pastor” (chief shepherd, 1 Peter 5:4) of the congregation. A team of elders jointly determine policy that affects the congregation. As the Senior Pastor, Mark McLellan makes the final decisions regarding the governing of the congregation and implementation of the policy determined by the elders. Other Ministers who are involved in overseeing various other areas of responsibility are Charissa Haines and Marilyn Dean.
