THE BOARD OF DEACONS

Deacons gives leadership to 5 ministries which serve the needs of
the congregation and through the congregation its neighbors as
indicated below:
The Visitation Ministry visits the homebound of the
congregation and those who are hospitalized on a regular basis.

cards and devotional materials, responds to members or those
