The office of deacon is not an office of authority, but one of service. A man who agrees to serve as a deacon in a New Testament church agrees to be an example in spirit, love, devotion, and loyalty.
The deacon ministry has three major responsibilities: (1) to assist pastoral staff with ministry to the Body, (2) to assist the church to build and maintain Christian fellowship and unity, and (3) to serve as exemplary Christian leaders in the church and community. Pray for me as I endeavor to live up to the task.
