Interested in Lay Servant Ministries
Our District and our church are always looking for those that would be interested in being more involved in Lay Servant

*Basic Lay Servant - one that serves only in his/her local church.
*Advanced Lay Servant - serves in his/her church and other local churches as a speaker.
*Lay Minister - serves anywhere in the United Methodist church and can be a fill-in for churches as needed.
(If you would be interested, please see Pastor Ronnie for more details.)
