Crescent Hill Presbyterian Church

Deacons Annual Report 2012

 

The Book of Order indicates that the ministry of deacon as set forth in scripture is one of compassion, witness, and service after the example of Jesus Christ.  

 

The deacons of Crescent Hill Presbyterian Church have responded to this calling by continuing the Friendship Ministry in which the deacon of the month and volunteers from the congregation pair up throughout the year to offer support, food, and encouragement to members needing care.  Homebound members of the congregation are visited or contacted throughout the year and a deacon tries to be present during funerals to offer support to the grieving family.  

 

Recognizing the ministry of meals and food, we have also arranged to offer the CHPC family opportunities to fellowship and connect by organizing the weekly After Church Refreshments and the July Suppers The Crescent Hill community was invited to join our church for the final July supper, and the deacons coordinated a potluck and water slide for the well attended gathering.   

 

The deacons also work with the ESL planning team to coordinate meals and programs for the ESL ministry 

 

In tribute to the hardworking staff of CHPC, the Deacons coordinated a catered staff appreciation dinner earlier this year—the first such dinner in over 20 years.  

 

Many of the deacon’s ministries could not be offered without assistance from members of the congregation, and volunteers to participate in the Friendship Ministry, After Church Refreshments, or Funeral Aid are always needed.  Please contact the church office if you are willing to help extend the compassion, witness, and service demonstrated by Jesus Christ to the CHPC family.

 

The Deacons of Crescent Hill Presbyterian Church for 2012:  Dean Nicklas, Stephanie Gregory, Yvonne Perry, Tom Peterson, Lewis Washington, and Amy Linfield.  Outgoing deacons are Tom Peterson, Yvonne Perry, and Amy Linfield.
