FOR OUR DEACON MINISTRY
“As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace.”— 1 Pet. 4:10
The Lord gives every believer gifts to build up the Body of Christ. Deacon ministry is a vital part of church life, ensuring the congregation’s growth in peace and good order. Through the faithful service of brothers and sisters, administrative, technical, and practical needs are met, and our pastors are supported in their care for souls.
In our church, deacon ministry involves hundreds of devoted hearts and covers many areas — from preparing the sanctuary and managing sound, to serving the Lord’s Supper and caring for those who are sick. Each of these acts of service is an important part of building up the Body of Christ.
Next week, please pray:

Next week, please pray:
- For a strong spiritual foundation: that all brothers and sisters involved in deacon ministry would grow in their knowledge of Christ, and that their service would not become mere routine or obligation, but a grateful response to God for His salvation.
- For strength and joy: that God would renew physical energy and grant spiritual endurance to those whose service often goes unnoticed; that He would guard their hearts from discouragement and fill them with joy.
- For wisdom for deacon ministry leaders: that God would give them vision, practical wisdom, and the ability to encourage others as they faithfully navigate challenges.
- For new ministers: give thanks to the Lord for those brothers who have recently joined the deacon ministry, and pray that they would gladly learn from those who have served before them, grow in diligence, and become a blessing to our church.
