The office that handles pastoral appointments is the ________.

• A. State Overseer
• B. District Overseer
• C. Local Church Board
• D. Church Council

Answer: (A)

Pastoral appointments are governed by the office that oversees ministers for the entire state. The State Overseer has the authority to appoint or reassign pastors to churches within the state, ensuring alignment with church policies and doctrinal standards. While district leaders and local boards provide input and manage local concerns, the final appointment decisions come from the State Overseer. District Overseers handle matters within their district, Local Church Boards manage local church affairs, and Church Councils deal with broader governance, but they do not carry the ultimate appointment authority.
