Adjutancy 101 - Elder David D. Cottingham

The word “Adjutant” comes from the Latin word Adiutare, which means; “to aid or assist” or more appropriately stated; “to keep on helping”. The latter definition used in the military means; “a staff officer who assists the Commanding Officer; the Officer-In-Charge of administrative affairs for the Commanding officer.” In the “ecclesial” sense, an Adjutant is “a servant who assists and advises a bishop on liturgical, ceremonial and protocol matters; and, administratively organizes and executes ceremonies, services and the directives of the bishop.” The Adjutancy, among us, is the group of men and women who are charged with the task of standardizing and enacting the fundamentals of our ceremonial, liturgical, and protocol traditions.

Servitude - Overseer Shawn R. Mason Jr.

There is nothing new about leadership; it isn't a new concept. There have been leaders since the beginning of time. But, Jesus flipped the narrative of leadership on its head. Leadership isn't about making our names known but rather making God's name know through loving and respecting those we serve and using that authority with grace. No matter your profession or the type of leadership role yours in, everyone is leading someone. So, how do you become a servant leader?
