WHO WE ARE Deacons The Book of Order states that "the office of deacon as set forth in Scripture is one of sympathy, witness, and service after the example of Jesus Christ. It is the duty of deacons, first of all, to minister to those who are in need, to the sick, to the friendless, and to any who may be in distress both within and beyond the community of faith." In other words, the Deacons are here to help — people within the congregation as well as local charitable organizations. Some examples of services that have been provided by the Deacons include
How to reach us If you or someone you know is in need of help or a service similar to those listed above, you are encouraged to contact one or more of the current deacons or email your request to sixthdeacons@gmail.com. The Deacons act in confidence, so you can be sure your concern will stay private. Current Deacons Derek Bell Sara Berg Cosy Cornelius-Bates Carol Emerson Jan Fisher Megan Fogt Vicki Guy Chris McAdams Fred O'Leary Aldora Watt In the words of composer David Haas, "We are called to act with justice. We are called to love tenderly. We are called to serve one another, to walk humbly with God." At Sixth Church we answer God's call to love and care for each other in so many ways; the Deacons hope that through our coordinating efforts we can provide further support to our church family and our community.
