Is God Calling you to
Minister to Others?
As
part of our Labor of Love initiative, we will be beginning a Lay Ministers
program which will be pairing up a trained lay minister from within the
congregation with individuals or families in the church or community who
would like to have someone to talk and pray with them on a regular
basis. We will be training Lay Ministers on the afternoon of
Sunday, January 23rd from 1:00-5:00 PM, so please consider if God is
calling you to be a part of our Lay Ministers team. If you are considering it, please talk
with Pastor Andrew, and he will
give you more information!
