Elder Ballot 2019
At PVCC, Elders serve terms of 2 years. An Elder may be re-nominated for a fresh 2-year term.
In 2019, 5 of our 6 Elders (Rick Aton, Terry Blaker, John Britting, Carl Pafford, and Joshua Walker) are completing their terms. 1 of our 6 Elders (Craig Hunter) is in the middle of his 2-year term ending June 2020. As the By-Laws define the role of Senior Minister, Ben Halliburton is a permanent, ex officio, non-voting Elder.
Rick Aton, Terry Blaker, Carl Pafford, and Joshua Walker have agreed to continue to serve, and per the By-Laws have been reviewed by the other Elders.
Please read and consider the Scripture passages on this topic found in Acts 6, 1 Timothy 3, Titus 1, and 1 Peter 5 before voting.
Rick Aton (left) and Terry Blaker (right)
Rick is completing a two-year term, and is on the ballot for a fresh two-year term.
Terry is completing a two-year term, and is on the ballot for a fresh ONE-year term. The purpose is to re-balance the number of Elders who renew in even years vs. odd years.
Carl Pafford (left) and Joshua Walker (right)
Carl is completing a two-year term, and is on the ballot for a fresh two-year term.
Joshua opts to serve year by year, due to Erin’s unstable health situation.
Ben Halliburton (left) and Craig Hunter (right)
Ben and Craig are not on this year’s ballot.
Pastor Ben, as Senior Minister, is a permanent ex-officio Elder.
Craig is in the middle of a two-year term ending next summer.
John Britting: John is taking a break from the Elder team at this time, as they help Jennifer’s parents get settled in Indiana. We’ll miss John’s insights and laughter, and fully intend to reel him back in soon!
