Opportunities for Service:

Small Group Leader & Apprentice

 An important aspect of our Small Group Ministry is the transformational nature of the groups. Leaders and apprentice leaders are trained in the caring and supporting needs that members of small groups will require.

Adult Youth Counselor & NightLife Leader

 Our adult youth counselors are those who feel the calling and desire to be with the youth of our congregation for meetings, outings, sports, retreats, trips, and fund raisers. You may choose what type and how many activities to participate in.

Confirmation Mentors

 Confirmation mentors serve as a mentor to a small group of confirmation students. This person is present at each confirmation class session, interacting with the confirmands as directed. Confirmation mentors also schedule fellowship and local servant event activities during the year. This ministry is very relational in nature. Training and guidance are supplied to all who participate as Confirmation Guides.

Board of Elders

 The Board of Elders consists of twelve men who take on the responsibility of spiritual care and promote spiritual health along with our Pastor for the congregation. As the need arises for this large responsibility, this board may call on others who have the desire to shepherd portions of the congregation. They supervise in matters of church discipline and spiritual care giving. The Board of Elders receive direction from, but also assist the called staff. Elders report to the Executive Council and Voters' Assembly. They should possess good communication skills of listening and sharing concerns. In addition, they support the activities of the sanctioned societies and organizations active in this congregation.
