How - To Guides
Worship Leadership Training
In concert with Bro. Key's lessons from the Bible on church development we are striving to develop our brothers for leadership. To that end, Bro. David Garrett has developed a leadership workshop for the men that will be presented via Zoom on Saturdays. Please see him for more details.
The Return of Sunday Evening Service: Online
Some members have expressed an interest in having some form of Sunday evening worship. Bro. Key has offered to give a sermon online to satisfy that goal. If you're interested, please let Bro. Key or one of the Multimedia team members know and we can make this happen.
Multimedia Ministry
As we strive to grow Christ's Kingdom, we are striving to grow our congregation. One of the advancements we have made in these efforts is investment in technology and the development of a new outreach: the Multimedia Ministry! We are now using the monitors to support our worship service by displaying hymns, Scripture, and order of worship, as well as announcements and member spotlights to keep us all engaged and edified. Special thanks to Sis. Priscilla McNeal and Bro. David Garrett for spearheading this effort with great success!! Your multimedia ministry team members are: Sis. Priscilla McNeal, Bro. David Garrett, Sis. Cowinta Key, Sis. Annie Nettles, Sis. Makaylen Thomas, Sis. Sybil Dunlop and Sis. Samantha Holmes. If you would like to get involved, please reach out to the team. We are so excited to see how God is blessing us to grow in so many ways and to reach more souls using modern technology!
P.S., Please don't forget to fill out and return your index card or scan the QR code on screen during Announcements on Sunday with your and your family's names, phone numbers and birthday(s) and anniversary to get a special call on your special day and a shout out on the monitors and a congratulatory call from Bro. Key!
Praise Dance Ministry
Sis. Christina Garrett, our liturgical dance coach extraordinaire, has done a wonderful job leading our children in dance for various church programs. She is spearheading a ministry related to dance for the children. What a wonderful way to keep our children active and more invested in learning about and praising God! Please see her for more details!
NEW ON THE WEBSITE!
New Website Menu Tab for Sunday's Service: We've added a new menu tab, Sunday's Service, where new material will be added weekly. In conjunction with our new multimedia ministry, we will upload the slides that will be displayed on the monitors during service. So feel free to follow along with the order of worship, and get familiar with the hymns for service by checking out the PowerPoint slides for worship!
