Nominating Committee

Romans 12:6-7 “We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith; if it is serving, then serve; if it is teaching, then teach;”



We, as Christians, have all been given a unique gift or talent to lead others to Christ and to grow the kingdom. It is our responsibility to find ways to become involved and help make an impact.

THE NOMINATING COMMITTEE is asking everyone to be in prayer as they will be starting to fill the positions in the church and to consider where you might be able to best serve.

Thank you in advance for each of you that volunteer your time and talents in order to invest in our church family and community.

Charlie Edwards, Nominating Committee Chairman
