The Deacons are considered the compassionate,
caring and service oriented body of the church. The church
membership can be interpreted as one of their major areas of care.
Both the Parish Nurses and the Care Partners are considered a
ministry of the Deacons. Therefore designating them as the
board with responsibility and oversight of the church membership
rolls can logically follow.
The area of "Service" is to provide the
support necessary to make certain that all worship services and
other services are cared for and supported with all necessary
accouterments. The area of "Service" also seeks to identify
ways in which the Deacons are related to other boards inside the
life of the church. Some of the ways in which the Deacons
respond in the area of "Service" are:
-
Communion preparation
-
Special service preparation (i.e. Maundy
Thursday)
-
Greeters for services
-
Ushers for services
-
Assisting the Pastor at Presbyterian
Manor Chapel services
-
Providing assistance for other nursing
home worship services as requested
-
Arranging for representatives to the
Session and other assigned liaisons to Session Committees
-
Those matters relating to "Service" as
assigned by the Session or developed from the Board of Deacons or
on the Pastor's recommendation
