Deacons Ministry

Deacon's Ministry

Arthur Barrett, Chairman

It is the responsibility of the Chairman to make monthly reports regarding the well-being of the members under his care. He is to keep the Pastor informed of any changes that may occur in a family's situation during the month.

The Deacon's Ministry is the official leadership board of the church. The Deacons help facilitate the Pastor's vision for the church, while supporting various ministries of the church. The Deacons are assigned segments of the membership depending of the area of the community in which they live. The Deacon will serve Communion with the Pastor on the 1st Sunday of every month at the church, as well as with his sick and shut-in members. Each member of the Deacon's Ministry must submit to God as he assists the Pastor, serve and lead the Body of Christ and witness to the unsaved with faith, love, hope and integrity.
