Elders
Our elders are our spiritual leaders. They are servant leaders. They are leaders with character. They lead the church out of a humble love for the church and hearts that seeks to glorify God. Their ministry is to shepherd, guide, and care for the church. These men are great leaders because they have all humbly chosen to follow Jesus and His leadership. So in following Jesus, by their leadership, they help the church to follow Jesus as well. Their wives are godly women who also greatly contribute to the church and are an invaluable part of their husbands' shepherding ministries.
Our elders (and their wives): Clint (and Cyndy) Erickson, Mike (and Janyce) Forehand, Mark (and Cindy) Kady, Kerry (and Donna) Kline, Brett (and Kim) McNeill, Rob (and Jane) Millspaugh, and Doug (and Melissa) Wiley.

Mark and Cindy Kady
Hi, I am Mark Kady, an elder at the Center Road Church of Christ. But I didn't always believe, and when I was a young man, I had to look at the evidence of the Bible and the Resurrection and decide whether there was enough evidence for faith. Well, now I have been a Christian for over 40 years and continue to rejoice in the life Christ has given me. I am married to Cindy Kady who has taught me much about serving and listening to people and has been my wife for over 37 years. We have 3 children who all live in the Seattle area where I was born, and we have one granddaughter. We love spending time with family and we enjoy the outdoors hiking, biking, and camping in God's creation. I love the family here at Center Road and enjoy visiting and encouraging one another. I am responsible for Life Groups, Soul seeking, and Worship ministries. My favorite verse is Ephesians 3:20-21, "Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen." (NIV).
