Welcome to the Board of Deacons Information age.
Our committee consists of 12 members who constitute the lay ministry of the church. Deacons are responsible for preparing the sanctuary for every worship service, preparing and administering the elements of Holy Communion, visiting the sick and elderly, assisting the pastor with Baptism and new member ceremonies and providing liturgists. They also try to lead the congregation into a deeper understanding and appreciation of the nature and mission of the church, and to better meet the spiritual needs of its members.
In conjunction with the Pastor, the Board of Deacons administers the Deacon’s Fund which offers emergency financial assistance to those in need.
These pages will provide a description of who we are and the details we need to 'keep things running' in the church.
