Living As Sacrifices to God

“I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.”
Romans 12:1

Jesus has done what we cannot do; taken the form of a servant and perfectly obeyed God. We, as Christians (“little Christs”), are to similarly live as servants to one another and to the world around us (Acts 10:38). Our Diaconate (our board of deacons), helps the congregation carry
out this calling to serve.

Lake Wales Care Center

We are a founding partner of the Lake Wales Care Center, a faith based community service organization which demonstrates Christ’s love by building bridges between people in need and people with a desire to serve.

Church Groups Mobilized for Service

Many acts of service take place as different Small Groups, Sunday School classes, individuals, and teams built for a specific task, go out and serve. We rejoice in the ways this happens formally and informally.

Committee Service

Our members help our church ministries by serving on committees of our Diaconate and Session.
