Deacons

Deacons are the spiritual leaders and positive Christian witnesses to the church. Each deacon is expected to live his/her life as honest, of good reputation, temperate, humble, worthy of respect, and of good report. At any time, you are welcome to reach out to any of the church deacons; deacons are here to serve.
