SISTERS IN SERVICE (SIS)
|
|
|
|
|
|
The
goal of Sisters in Service is to follow Christ's example
of loving, scarificial service by equipping women in their
physical, relational, and spiritual development and training
them to be servants. "...whoever wants to become great
amoung you must be your servant, whoever wants to be first
must be your slave - just as the Son of Man did not come
to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom
for many." Matthew 20:26-28

SEARCH FOR SIGNIFICANCE
|
|
|
|
|
|
A
healthy, positive self-esteem is not attained by "feel
good" superficiality. On the other hand, a Christ-centered
view of ourselves is not detrimental to true discipleship;
it is the result of understanding and applying the truths
of the Scriptures. A proper view of God and of ourselves enables
us to love, obey, and honor Christ with full hearts. Paul
wrote, For through the grace given to me I say to every man
among you not to think more highly of himself than he ought
to think; but to think so as to have sound judgment...(Rom.
12:3). This sound judgment is not based on either pop psychology
or spiritual masochism. Sound judgment is based squarely on
God's truth. The Search for Significance is designed to present
His truth clearly. |

FAMILY CARE GROUPS
|
|
|
|
|
|
Your
spiritual health is important to us, however, it can be difficult
sometimes for our elders to spend the one-on-one time they
would like to with each member of our congregation. The Family
Care Groups are designed so that each member knows that they
have someone who can pray for them and and make sure that
they are doing okay. The care group leaders report to the
elders so they can always be aware of the needs of each person
in the congregation. These care groups allow us to function
as an intimate family, even though we have many members. |
