Welcome to the Ministries Webpage
The
Bible tells us that every follower of Jesus has been prepared for ministry.
Each of us has
GIFTS
that the Holy Spirit has given us; we were born with or have developed
ABILITIES
and talents;
the
PASSIONS
in our heart draw us to particular areas; and the
PERSONAL
EXPERIENCES that God has brought us through and taught us to shape us each in
a unique way to serve Him and others.

Are
you unsure of just how you fit into the picture? Then perhaps you
would like to attend our Connections class where you will, with the help of
a ministry consultant, discover how your unique shape can fill a gap in
church and/or community ministries.
Maybe
you already know what your gifts and abilities are and God has given you a
passion to serve. If that’s the case we invite you to check out the
Ministries Catalog link in order to get connected as a volunteer in an
existing ministry. And if God has laid it on your heart to start a new
ministry, we’re excited and want to help you in any way we can!

wholeheartedly, as if you are serving the Lord, not men…” Ephesians 6:7
“All men do not receive the same gifts, but to every
servant of the Master some gift of the Spirit is promised.” Ellen White,
Christ’s Object Lessons
“There are
different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are different kinds of
service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but the
same God works all of them in all men.” I Corinthians 12:4
“If we can ever
awaken and unleash the massive talent, resources, creativity, and energy
lying dormant in the typical local church, Christianity will explode with
growth at an unprecedented rate.” Rick Warren
