Family Plan
The Deaconess Ministry sponsors a Family Plan.  The Deacons and Deaconess use the Deaconess Family Plan to develop relationships with the members of the congregation. Each individual member or family is assigned a Deacon and Deaconess who will be their contact person if the member has any questions or concerns. This also allows them to keep in touch with each member, celebrate milestones and provide moral support in dealing with any crisis.
