Deacons

Deacons are called to show forth the compassion of Christ in the ministry of mercy toward the those in the congregation and strangers on behalf of the church. To this end they exercise, in the fellowship of the church, a recognized stewardship of care and of gifts for those in need or distress. This service is distinct from that of rule in the church.
