Deaconesses

"Servants, obey in all things your masters according to the flesh; not with eyeservice, as menpleasers; but in singleness of heart, fearing God: And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ. But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons." Col. 3: 23-25

The Deaconess Ministry is appointed by the Pastor. These women are sober and seasoned. They are responsible for the preparation of the elements for communion on first Sundays; and for preparing candidates for baptism. They also visit the sick and shut in; and serve the entire church family during worship services. They may be called upon in the time of bereavement to be of personal aid to the family.


Dr. Robert C. Stanley, Senior Pastor
Deaconess Patricia Stanley, President
