It is the church members, acting through our regular Church Meetings, who look to seek the way of Christ in all that we do at DBC and who make important decisions.
Inevitably, there has to be a small body that deals with nitty-gritty stuff and also looks to suggest and guide. This role, which is very much one of servant leadership, falls to our Ministers (Revds Vicky & Barry Thompson) and the Church Elders. The current Elders, appointed by the Church Meeting, are:
Adeniran Adisa
Marilyn Bell
Charlie Hart (Acting Church Secretary)
Brian Holt
June Hughes
Judith Mann
Craig Marshall
Gillian Marshall
Of course, the Ministers and Elders cannot do it all. There are many people, who give of their time and talents, to coordinate various aspects of church life. DBC is very much about ministry by everyone involved, doing their bit for DBC but, more importantly, for Christ in our local church.
