The General Board of the Church of the Nazarene which has governing responsibility for the International Church of the Nazarene in between General Assemblies, was created by action of the 1923 General Assembly to replace a system of independent general boards that often competed with one another for the church dollar. These independent boards became departments of the General Board. The General Assembly elects representatives from around the world to the General Board of the Church of the Nazarene. The General Board carries out the corporate business of the denomination." At the 2009 General Assembly a new General Board was elected to a four-year term. The General Board currently has 44 members representing the church's then 15 regions, and an additional four members were elected to represent Education (2), Nazarene Youth International, and Nazarene Missions International. Of the 48 members elected, 27 are from outside the USA, and 21 are US citizens. Five are women. Meeting at least annually, the most recent meeting of the General Board was its 89th Session held February 21–27 in General Board.
The Church of the Nazarene has two orders of ordained ministry: the ordained elder and the ordained minister. The ordained elder is a person, either male or female, who has been set apart for a ministry of "Word and Sacrament." Their primary assignment is to preach the Word, administer the sacraments, and lead the local church. The ordained minister is a man or woman who has been set apart for full-time ministry in a role other than "Word and Sacrament." Those eligible to be ordained as ministers include those who are called to a full-time ministry of music, Christian social ministry, or director of Christian education, Moncler Down
Vest Men or another ministry that does not typically involve leading a congregation. The church also has district licensed ministers. Usually these are persons who are on the path toward ordination or who are strongly considering a call to ordained ministry. A licensed minister may,Ministers in some cases, be the pastor of a church. |
