The Diaconate
The Diaconate
In the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), the diaconate is the ordered ministry of compassion, witness, and service. The congregation elects deacons to lead the church in ministries of care, justice, and generosity, especially among those who are poor, sick, lonely, or in distress. Their work expresses the church’s call to embody the love of Jesus Christ through practical service, carried out under the authority and supervision of the session (Book of Order, G-2.0201; G-2.0202). Below are some examples of ministries conducted by our diaconate.

Discipleship
Discipleship
We are a congregation of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) seeking to follow Jesus Christ through worship, learning, and community. Each Sunday at 11:00 a.m., we gather for worship shaped by Scripture, prayer, and liturgy, trusting that God meets us and forms us together. Throughout the week, we offer opportunities for discipleship and conversation through study groups and shared learning, and we also encourage spiritual growth at home through personal and family resources.
*As we look to the future, we are prayerfully exploring new ways to serve our neighbors and more fully welcome people of all ages and stages of life. We know God is still at work among us, calling us to grow, to change, and to open our hearts to what comes next.
