God, through the Holy
Spirit, has equipped
each believer to serve Him within the Body of Christ through the
distribution of spiritual gifts (1 Cor. 12:7).
At
Macedonia, we believe these gifts can be best utilized through
organized Ministry Teams. The Outreach Ministry Team is
made up of
Christians who believe that God has given them the gifts of evangelism,
serving, exhortation, showing mercy, and giving. Members of this team are
actively involved in
developing, planning, and implementing events and activities that are
designed to reach our community with the Good News of Jesus
Christ. This team is responsible for discovering new and
exciting
ways to introduce new members of the community to MBC. C.A.R.E. NIGHT The first Wednesday of each month is designated as C.A.R.E. Night at Macedonia. C.A.R.E. is an acronym for “Christians Actively Reaching Everyone.” On C.A.R.E. Nights we reach out to those in our church family who need encouraging by sending cards, making phone calls, or visiting. There is also a meal, signup the Sunday prior is required. Below are some of the ways we’ve reached out to our community:
The Outreach team helps to plan and organize community canvassing projects that promote special events and activities sponsored or associated with the various ministries at Macedonia. COMMUNITY OUTREACH EVENTS The Outreach team plays an integral part in helping to plan and carry-out events designed to touch the community. Our Vacation Bible School, Fall Festival/Trunk N' Treat are a couple of annual events where this team’s efforts are showcased. SPECIAL PROJECTS There are a number of special ministry projects that come up throughout the year. The Outreach team is instrumental in making these opportunities for ministry known to our congregation. In the past we’ve been able to partner with local church ministries like Christian Ministries of Lincoln County, Hesed House of Hope, Heartbeats Women's Center, and East Lincoln Christian Ministries. If you are interested in serving on this team please see Pastor Randy. |
Compassion...And the King will answer
and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you
did it
to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to
Me.’ |
