Deacon’s Ministry

  
Ministry Objective

The Deacon’s Ministry endeavors to fulfill the qualifications of its office as defined in Acts 6:3-8 and in I Timothy 3:8-13. The ministry objective is to faithfully assist the Pastor in carrying out the spiritual and business responsibilities to the church. “Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.”  Matthew 24:46

 
Area of Focus

 ·       Commitment to Spiritual Development

Deacons are encouraged to attend Church School and Bible Study in addition to Worship Services.   Deacons are to be familiar with the plan of salvation.

The Deacon’s Ministry will accomplish the Membership Reclamation Ministry and will coordinate membership contact and updates with other ministries to assist.   Deacons provide for the general welfare of the congregation through benevolence, membership aid, referrals for services, and bus ministry.  The Deacons Ministry will exhort the membership through Stewardship emphasis.

 
·       Support to the Pastor

The Deacon’s Ministry assists the Pastor in carrying out the two ordinances of the church, baptism and the Lord’s Supper; and assists the Pastor in ensuring the Finance Committee is maintained.
