Clifton Baptist Church is a congregationally-governed, elder-led church.
The elders bear a
unique responsibility for the teaching, leading, and shepherding of the congregation.
However, the congregation as a whole remains the final authority for all matters related to the
church. In addition, we set apart deacons, who seek to facilitate practical service within the
body.
