Board of Deacons
The deacons support the pastoral staff in ministering to members who are ill, homebound or in need. They are nominated and elected by the congregation from within its membership, serving three-year terms. Their duties include home visitation, flower delivery, extended communion delivery, meals team, support for the Sunday bus, and special transportation requests, among others.The Board of Deacons is composed of 30 deacons who work with Pastoral Care Coordinator Eileen Jinks and Pastoral Care Associate Jill Ewell.
Pastoral care provides Christian support to members of our congregation who are ill, grieving, or facing other life crises, as well as those who may no longer be physically able to attend church regularly or participate actively in church activities.
