Serving Others Makes Life Better

Volunteer

 “You can be more effective together than apart. In a truly healthy relationship, we enable each other to accomplish more than we could have done alone.

This was His plan.” –  Francis Chan

 Having gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, in proportion to our faith;  if service, in our serving; the one who teaches, in his teaching;  the one who exhorts, in his exhortation; the one who contributes, in generosity; the one who leads, with zeal; the one who does acts of mercy, with cheerfulness.

Romans 12:6-8

Worship

The Worship Team serves the church by utilizing

their skills as vocalists and instrumentalists on stage

on Sundays to create a worship experience that is

life-giving and saturated with the presence of God. 

Hospitality 

This team prepares coffee on Sunday mornings as a way to say good morning and serve the church family. The word hospitality comes from two words: love + newcomers. That is what we want to do every Sunday.

Set Up

Currently we are meeting in the Southside Auditorium on Sundays. This means we have to prepare and

set up the kids space, lobbies, and auditorium.

This team comes early to set up and get the

facility ready for the day. 

Greeters

The front door is our first impression.

We want a team smiling and welcoming people as they come in from the parking lot. The greeters 

love to engage guests and are able to notice  and respond if anyone needs help.

Small Groups

Our Small Group Teams are made up of three team members.

 

Hosting small groups is a perfect way to serve in the church. We love to see people in each others' living rooms around open bibles and in the kitchen around good food and good conversation. This team facilitates our small groups by opening up their homes. One of the primary ways we love each other as a church is in our small groups. We will grieve with those that grieve and rejoice with those that rejoice. We will notice when someone is missing and we will care for each other. This team is made up of all our care team leaders in small groups. Small group leaders are a crucial part of our church. As a church grows larger it must grow smaller and more intentional. Our small group leaders make up a team of people who teach and lead our small groups.

Missions

We set aside 20% of our budget for missions. This includes direct missionary support, IMB and NAMB support and local association support including IBA and ABSC. It also includes mission trips, mission conferences, and local missional outreaches.

This team will serve to help logistically.
