But it is not contrary to this plurality of elders to have one of the elders serving in the major “pastoral” role. God calls some as “pastor/teachers” (even as He called some to be missionaries in Acts 13) and gives them as gifts to the church (Ephesians 4:11).
Lakini si kinyume na wingi huu wa wazee kuwa na mzee mmoja akiwahudumia katika jukumu la "uchungaji". Mungu uhita baadhi kama "mchungaji / walimu " (hata kama Alitoa wito baadhi kuwa wamisionari katika Matendo 13) na kuwapa kama zawadi kwa kanisa (Waefeso 4:11).
