Deacons

The Deacons are devoted to our mission of helping care for the congregation. This care especially includes support for the sick, bereaved, needy and lonely – as well as those with cause to celebrate such as new births, baptisms, or marriages. 

Each Deacon is assigned a geographical area called a Parish, as well as specific care-ministry roles. Care roles include but are not limited to: memorial receptions, off-site communion, helping keep member contact information current, support visits (sometimes with flowers or food), and the church’s prayer ministry. Deacons also have various other roles and keep in communication with members of their parish.

We are in contact with our Parish members to discern if they are in need of our help. We’re also advised by our Pastors of those in need.

The Board of Deacons is led by a Moderator who provides leadership and overall organization of the group’s ministry roles.
