Question
In the missionary baptist church there is a deacon ministry.  When and how is a chairman of this board chosen and how long does he serve as chairman of deacon board.  

Answer
Virginia,

I am so sorry for the late reply. Please forgive me.

As to your question, I am not sure which "Missionary Baptist" organization your are speaking of...

American Baptist Association, Baptist Missionary Association of America, or the Interstate & Foreign Landmark Missionary Baptist Association?

Perhaps you could be more specific?

Thanks,

Elder Greg Madden

Please understand that I will answer any questions you may have from a Biblical perspective, not a Baptist one. For more info check out our web site at...

Experience

I attended a fundamental independent Baptist church for many years. While attending the church I learned the doctrines and beliefs of the Baptist movement. I now attend an independent Pentecostal church. I have served there as an Elder for fourteen years. I minister in song with the choir and worship team. I am also the new member’s class coordinator, men's ministry director, and the Harvest Riders motorcycle ministry president.
In 1993 the Lord called me to "...preach the Gospel where ever I open the door..." I have had the privilege of ministering God's Word to churches in Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas. In those meetings we have seen the Lord save, heal, deliver, and fill people will His Spirit.

Organizations
I am ordained through Harvest Church, and with the World Harvest Ministerial Fellowship. I also am a licensed minister with the State of Oklahoma.

Education/Credentials
I am currently enrolled with the Ames Bible College.
