Worship Ministries Deacon’s Ministry
Purpose Statement: To share with the ministers in building and supporting our church’s spiritual life.
Goal: To free the pastoral staff thus enabling them to focus on prayer and the ministry of the Word while promoting unity within the church and facilitating the spreading of the gospel.
Responsibilities: Ongoing duties include assisting with communion services, baptisms, delivering flowers and sharing communion with the sick and shut-in, expressing concern by calling members to encourage them and assisting the Pastor in any way possible.
Deacons are called to be dedicated caregivers who use their spiritual gifts in a shared ministry of concern for the total well-being of God’s people.
Deacons are to be Christ-like, welcoming, nurturing, reconciling, and sensitive to the presence of God’s spirit in their lives and in the lives of others.
Deacons have an obligation to witness for Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord within and beyond the Body of Christ, which is the Church.
Deacons have the privilege to wear the “badge of honor” in that they are one of the two named church officers that are mentioned in the bible.
Deacons in the New Testament served the Lord by conducting the caring ministry of the church, doing the benevolence work, visiting the sick and being alert to the spiritual needs of the congregation.
We at New Bethel are proud to have Deacons that hold such a standard as God requires.
Deaconess' Ministry “I commend unto you Phebe our sister, which is a
servant of the church which is at Cenchrea”; That ye receive her in the Lord,
as becometh saints, and that ye assist her in whatsoever business she hath need
of you: for she hath been a succourer of many, and of myself also". (Romans 16:1-2) The word succourer is interesting in that it means someone who gives help in times of need, distress or difficulty. The servant that Paul referred to above is the elect woman that we call “Deaconess” in our church.

Women who are devoted to God should make themselves attractive by the good things they do. Music Ministry "Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all the lands! Serve the Lord with gladness! Come into His presence with singing!” (Psalm 100:1-2) 
Praise Dance Ministry Purpose: Our purpose is to be a safe haven for individuals to freely praise, worship and celebrate God and His mighty works through the ministry of dance.
