Our Leadership

The leadership exists to serve the community, the people of Bloom. Members of our Congregational Leadership Team (CLT) are nominated from our community and elected by our current CLT. They work to steward the vision, the community, and the finances of Bloom, and they must display Bloom's marks of a leader:

• Committed: Must be active in the Bloom community, preferably with a history of service. 
• Vetted: Must be seen as a leader from a wide sample of the Bloom community. Gifts of leadership and desired character attributes must be seen and verified by the staff and CLT. 
• Spirit-Filled: Must show a life of commitment to Christ, displaying the fruits of the Spirit and manifestations of the love, grace, and power of God. 
• Equipped: Must show a hunger to learn and a willingness to sharpen skills needed to lead the community well.
• Mentored: Must show evidence of seeking out mentors, displaying an attitude of humility and grace in their own discipleship.

The staff serves the community by both carryon out the tactical elements of the vision, as well as supporting and encouraging the community in ministry.
