Servant Ministries

 

First Presbyterian offers a wide variety of ministry opportunities in which members are encouraged to become involved. If you are a member and looking for your own special place of ministry within this congregation, consider one of the following. To put your talents to good use and join one of these teams, contact the church office.

 

Greeters

Greeters greet visitors and members before and after the 8:45 AM service, before Sunday School, and before the 11:00 AM service. They help visitors locate appropriate Sunday School Classes and the nurseries, if needed.

 

Ushers

Ushers are a vital part of our worship service. They assist in greeting, distributing worship bulletins, assisting visitors, and collecting the offering. They should also be prepared to handle any emergency or unforeseen situation that may arise.

 

Vestibule Teams

Vestibule team members extend the right hand of fellowship to everyone as members of the congregation leave the sanctuary following the morning service.

 

TV Team

TV team members assist in the live broadcast of our 11:00 AM worship service each Sunday morning. Camera operators, soundboard operators, and broadcast supervisors are needed each week. Training is provided.

 

Homebound Communion

In accordance with the Book of Order, communion opportunities are announced in the bulletin for two weeks prior to Communion Sunday. Those who are home- or hospital-bound do not have to miss out on this important part of worship. An Elder goes with a minister, or two ministers go together, to take communion to those who are unable to attend church services.

 

Nursery Assistants

Nursery Assistants assist the paid nursery staff in providing quality childcare in a loving environment while parents and family attend Sunday School and worship service. A team of four parents coordinates needs with the Nursery Supervisor, recruiting extra help when needed. Parents and others are asked to help in the nurseries about once a quarter. 

 

Stephen Ministers

Stephen Ministry is a nationwide program that we are pleased to offer at First Presbyterian Church. Additional information is available here.
