Larry Teeple (Elder)
Larry is the longest serving of the elders and yet somehow has managed to remain calm and steady throughout the years. He serves wherever he is needed: sometimes visibly and often working quietly in the background. When not serving the church, he can be found helping people breathe at University Hospital. Larry loves his wife, Cheryl, as well as his four grown-and-married children, their spouses and his many grandchildren; but as deep as that love is, Larry loves Jesus and His Kingdom even more.

Ian Teetzel (Elder)
Ian is husband to Brianne and a father of four daughters. When not farming (and sometimes during) he enjoys researching a wide variety of subjects on the internet and has a working knowledge of many topics. He can be found playing drums or guitar on Sunday, welcoming people into his home for visits or taking notes at the deacons' meeting. If you need some research done on any topic, Ian is your man.

Stewart Campbell (Deacon)
God led my wife, Sandra, and I to Elim in the fall of 2017. We have 5 boys and 3 girls. I was saved at age 16 at Camp Hermosa. I have worked as a dairy herdsman for most of my life. I enjoy serving the Lord wherever I can in His local church. One of those ways of serving Him is by showing hospitality. These 2 verses are a couple of my favourites – Prov 9:10 and Phil 3:14
