Jesus Christ is the ultimate head of the Church, however we do have appointed leaders within the congregation. Get to know them here.

Our Elders

Jim Bledsoe

Elder

Jim has been attending the CV church for over 35 years and serving as an elder since 1993.

What is something that you feel is unique about CV? “CV is one of those place where people gather and celebrate the oneness of the body of Christ while appreciating the unique created individuals we all represent. We recognize the love of God envelopes all of us.”

Steve Sproles

Elder

Steve is the most recent addition to the Eldership. He has been attending CV since 1990 and became an Elder in 2018

What is one way you see God working in CV Church? “There’s a lot of members helping members behind the scenes that most in the congregation never hear about. I am more aware of this now as I have stepped into the role as an Elder. I think this is exactly how Christ wants us to live, as humble servants.”

Bill Warrell

Elder

Bill previously served as an Elder at his church on Long Island before making Lancaster his home in 2002. He gave his life to Christ in 1984 and has been an active member of the church ever since. He has been serving as an Elder at CV in 2003.

What do you seeing happening at CV that is encouraging to you? “It’s encouraging to be around so many people that have a deep desire to follow and emulate Christ. I’ve witnessed people give so much of themselves for the sake of their brother or sister. I love that this church is diverse, in age and culture, and how the people here help each other in life’s ups and downs, as we all grow in our Christian walk.”
