State and provincial overseers are appointed by which body?

• A. International Executive Council
• B. General Overseer
• C. International Council
• D. Local Church Development Plan

Answer: (A)

The International Executive Council is the body that handles appointments for state and provincial overseers. In this church structure, the IEC functions as the governing body responsible for implementing policy and ensuring consistent leadership across all regions. It reviews credentials, makes formal appointments, and aligns regional leadership with church doctrine, discipline, and administrative standards. The General Overseer leads spiritually, but the formal appointment authority for regional overseers rests with the International Executive Council, rather than with a development plan or any other body.
