carrying out the functions of the office of the public ministry (Predigtamt2). The duties of this

congregations have established an office called “elder” (Vorsteher1) to assist the pastor in
carrying out the functions of the office of the public ministry (Predigtamt2). The duties of this
office in synodical congregations generally indicate that elders work closely with the pastor in
his divinely assigned responsibility to feed the whole congregation with the Word of God and
to watch over it for the sake of its spiritual welfare. Elders serve primarily to assist the pastor
in shepherding and overseeing the entire flock of God at their place. They frequently assist in
certain aspects of the conduct of the public worship service, such as in the distribution of Holy
Communion. In certain emergency situations elders may be asked by the congregation to
perform, on a temporary basis, certain distinctive functions of the pastoral office. -

shorten delivery time. All of this is possible when the concurrent engineering team is involved with
the creation of the drawing. The drawing is a common thread that ties these groups together.
They all are involved with the engineering drawing. GD&T on the drawing must first and foremost
capture design intent. However, the best design in the world is worthless if it cannot be produced.
That is why it is necessary for production/vendors and quality to be involved with the
requirements that are placed on the drawing. When they are not involved, the drawings often
have overly tight tolerances and result in non-producible parts. At least not producible at the
quality level, cost and timeliness expected by industry. -
