*Deacon Candidates: These men have been nominated before the members of SHBC and now undergo a 6-month process of testing which includes both opportunities to assist the elders and be observed in their character and service. This process culminates with a review of their testing period and an elder vote.
*Elder Candidates: These men undergo 1 year of examination and complete the SHBC elder training program, culminating with a theological council and the laying on of hands in front of the congregation.
