We are congregational in government meaning that the final authority for church-related decisions lies within the members of our local church. The church calls its own pastors and elects its own leaders.

Pastor:
Our current pastor is Don Coole. He is a native of Massachusetts and was called to Candor in January of 2001. He holds a Master of Divinity degree from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School and a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Florida. He has served as a pastor in California and in Connecticut beginning in 1988.

He has been married to his wife Nancy for 25 years and has two children named Benjamin and Angela.

Youth Pastor:

Joe Pine is our youth pastor.  He has a degree from the Word of Life Bible Institute.  He is graduating from Davis College this May and is in the army reserves.  He brings a great deal of energy and excitement to the ministry of teens and youth.  He is married to his wife Becky and has three children. 

Deacons:
Our deacons are Bill Lunn, Dave Nichols, Chad Showers and Larry Lattin. They oversee the spiritual life of the church as stated in 1 Timothy 3:1 -7and Titus 1:7-9.
