Deacons

Deacons provide hospitality and care by greeting and welcoming people to worship, through sharing The Sacrament of the Lord’s Supper with church members who are home-bound and cannot physically attend worship in person, and by reaching out (with phone calls, cards and flowers) to church members who have recently been hospitalized or are going through a difficult time.

If you are interested in ministering as a church deacon, please email Rev. Melanie Hardison or call 913-671-2367.
