Serve & Volunteer

And he himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, some pastors and teachers, 12 equipping the saints for the work of ministry, to build up the body of Christ, 13 until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of God’s Son, growing into maturity with a stature measured by Christ’s fullness.

Ephesians 4:11-13

We are privileged to serve one another in a variety of ways as we carry out the work of the ministry for the glory of God. As the body of Christ each of us is uniquely called and gifted to serve God, His Church and our community. Each of our volunteer positions is important for the continuing work of the gospel as we serve God and care well for one another.
