Fellowship of Deacons
Deacons are members of the church who have been nominated by the congregation to serve in the Fellowship of Deacons.
Once nominated the new Deacons are ordained during Sunday morning worship. They work in teams that are organized by specific duties to help in shepherding the church membership. Any member is welcome to join a Deacon team.
