A Church Steward
One of the roles of a Church Steward, as set out by The
Methodist Church is:
"The Church Stewards are corporately responsible with the
Minister, for giving leadership and help over the whole range of the Church's
life and activity. They are particularly charged to hold together in unity the
variety of concerns that are contained within the one ministry of the Church. To
this end, it is their responsibility to uphold and act upon the decisions and
policies of the Church Council. In the discharge of their responsibilities they
are encouraged wherever possible to draw other members with appropriate gifts
and skills into a leadership team to be appointed by the Church Council"
