Deacon Ministry
“Deacons, likewise, are to be men worthy of respect, sincere, not indulging in much wine, and not pursuing dishonest gain. They must keep hold of the deep truths of the faith with a clear conscience. They must first be tested; and then if there is nothing against them, let them serve as deacons. In the same way, their wives are to be women worthy of respect, not malicious talkers but temperate and trustworthy in everything.
A deacon must be the husband of but one wife and must manage his children and his household well.”
1 Timothy 3:8-12
One way our deacons serve the Lord in our church is by administering the Lord’s Supper. In addition, our deacons also engage our community through deacon visitation. As part of this ministry, the deacons visit people at area nursing homes as well as visit church members and their families.
