Which body appoints state and provincial overseers?

• A. General Assembly
• B. International Executive Committee
• C. Mission Board
• D. Local church board

Answer: (B)

The right answer rests on who holds regional governance between assemblies. State and provincial overseers operate across multiple local churches, so the authority to appoint them comes from the body that controls international and regional leadership in between General Assemblies. The International Executive Committee is that body, responsible for appointing regional leaders who oversee districts within states or provinces and ensure consistency across a wide area.

The General Assembly sets broad policy and may shape leadership direction, but the actual appointment of regional overseers is handled by the International Executive Committee. The Mission Board focuses on missions rather than regional oversight, and a local church board manages only local church matters.
