Meaningful Ministry

“Ministry” is one of those churchy words that is often used, yet perhaps not fully understood. Ministry comes from the Latin word for “service.” Ministry involves serving others with love, compassion, and empathy. Helping someone with physical needs is sometimes called “compassion ministry.” Helping someone with their spiritual needs, sharing the good news of Christ, is generally called “gospel ministry.” We misunderstand ministry if we think of it as something only ministers do. While pastors are called to perform gospel ministry on behalf of others, ultimately every believer is called by God to reflect Christ-like love and share the message of salvation as God provides those opportunities.

In this worship series, we will see that as we attempt to meet the needs of those God brings into our sphere of influence, we are engaging in meaningful ministry. For in our service, those people see God’s love, and God sees our faith.  Our worship follows this pattern.

Services are on Saturday at 5:00pm; Sunday at 8:00am and 10:30am
