The office of Deacon as set forth in scripture is one of sympathy, witness and service after the example of Christ. The Deacons are organized to help meet the diverse needs in our community through ministries of benevolence, cards, prayer, transportation, memorial receptions, senior care, communion, and health, disabililty & visitation.
- Card Ministry Team
Deacons serving on the cards ministry team send birthday cards to congregational members 70 years of age and older. They also send cards of sympathy and encouragement when the need is brought to their attention.
- Comminications Ministry Team works to inform the congregation of the services provided by the Deacons and to encourage their use.
- Health, Disability and Visitation Team
This ministry team serves the community by addressing health care issues through the work of parish nurses and others. They also encourage those who are ill or disabled through visits and phone calls or by accompanying individuals to medical care. Our many visiting deacons also coordinate other services.
