Ministry of Worship
and the Arts invites individuals to participate in the worship service through planning arts events enhancing the worship service and supporting the congregation’s participation with ushers and acolytes. They also concern themselves with making visitors welcome.

 

Ministry of Christian Community is responsible for the community life of the church.

It includes many committees which offer many opportunities for support and participation!

  • The Fellowship Hour committee members make the coffee, help find and clean up things in the kitchen, and provide moral support for new participants.
  • Communication committee is concerned with communication within the congregation and with the larger neighborhood.

  • Gay / Straight - Singles / Together sponsors social activities and discussions which allow members of our congregation to enjoy one another’s company, support individuals, and destroy stereotypes through real life experiences.

The Ministry of Stewardship and Finance is also made up of several committees.

  • Finance oversees our expenditures and income.
  • Missions maintains communication with the nursery school housed in our building, makes sure that portion of our pledges for mission gets allocated appropriately, and organizes and supervises the doughnut sales at Farmers Market which provides many nonprofit organizations a fundraising opportunity. It also organizes the annual trip to Kentucky to build housing where none would otherwise exist.
