Deacons

"For the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life a ransom for many."

Mark 10:45

The purpose of the Diaconate is to assist the Pastor in the administration of the sacraments (Holy Communion & Baptism), assist with weddings, be a welcoming and helpful presence in the church, and cooperate with the Pastor in promoting the spiritual life of the congregation.

The definition of the word Deacon is: a servant, attendant, minister, fellow worker and assistant in evangelizing. The inspiration comes from the example of Jesus. Our motto is: "Once a Deacon, always a Deacon." Past Deacons continue to serve whenever needed. In this way, we continue to grow as we continue on our spiritual journey.

NEED A RIDE TO CHURCH? Please contact the church office by 10:00 a.m. on Friday, and a Deacon will be contacted to help you find a way to worship with us.

Devotional materials are provided for all ages: adults ("The Upper Room"), teens ("Devo'Zine") and children ("Pockets"). Large print copies of "The Upper Room," as well as our Sunday worship bulletins, are also available.
