COUNCIL OF ELDERS REPORT TO THE FIRST PRESIDENCY: ITEM #4 DEFINING THE FELLOWSHIP ROLES

April 12, 2021

We propose that David preside as prophet, seer and revelator over a stake of Zion, called according to revelation The Church of Jesus Christ in Christian Fellowship, welcoming those near or far who respond to his leadership and instructions, helping others to develop their prophetic gifts and leadership abilities to serve the Lord by forming church communities with local presidents either within his stake or as stand-alone affiliated stakes, as may be appropriate, while promoting the idea that this stake of Zion is equal to and recognizes other stakes, including those of larger traditional organizations, whether or not they so recognize.

It is recommended that the Fellowship demonstrate by example that varying doctrines, ideologies and the communities that value them need not be in competition, and to show our unquestioned commitment to supporting each fellow and group of fellows in developing spiritual gifts and talents that can be put to the service of others according to the light and knowledge that they currently hold, without judgment.

It is hoped that these suggestions make it easier for the First Elder. Being a revelator and translator is his most unique and important calling.
