Deacons Ministry

The Deacons Ministry shall assist the Senior Pastor in being spiritual leaders of the Church. They shall have the responsibility of assisting the Senior Pastor in the conduct of worship services, the conduct of the spiritual affairs of the Church, visiting and ministering to members, and to serve in any area of need that might arise within the body. ” Likewise deacons must be reverent, not double-tongued, not given to much wine, not greedy for money, holding the mystery of the faith with a pure conscience. But let these also first be tested; then let them serve as deacons, being found blameless [1 Timothy 3:8-10].”

Work closely with the pastor to assist as needed.” For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand.

Prayer Ministry

We Believe in the Power of Prayer The Bible says the prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective, yet something extraordinary happens when two or more agree together in prayer.

​

In Matthew 18:19, Jesus said, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.

Transportation Ministry

This ministry is a staff of volunteer Christians who love people.
