Our ministry in our church!
I ask you to serve in a sort of pastoral role, some would call it elders not just deacons
Deacons are typically just servants that take care of the physical needs in a church
The building
The benevolence fund
Other ministries like these
Elders are more like pastoral staff
They worry about the spiritual aspects of a church
They carry even more responsibility
I want our deacons to be a hybrid ministry.
Not just workers but leaders
Not just taking care of physical but doing the ministry also
I hope you will help be responsible for the entire membership
Know our members
Find out about their salvation, their baptism, their families
Their lives and families are our responsibility
I ask you to be involved in foundations and our discipleship ministry
I ask you to be teaching the Bible to as many in as many places as you can
I ask you to be watching our people and following up on the members that miss, are sick, need counseling etc
We should all share the gospel every the Lord will open us a door
I see the Lord’s supper as one of the honors given in our church that you would be able to participate and help our church see the importance of it
I hope you see every ministry of Vision as your ministry and important to our church and you
Sooner or later we will have senior citizens and or shut ins in our church and they will be your responsibility also
You are the hospitality ministry of Vision
I challenge you to always be an example to the church
In your family
In your giving
In your faithfulness
In your service
In your attitude
In your love
I ask you to help me figure out how to minister to our community
I ask that you always see Vision as your church, your ministry, your responsibility
Protect the church
Stand strong when needed for doctrine and truth
Even pastors are to be accountable and if not then they don't need to be our pastor
