I’ve now filled in the forms for being a Deacon, and have an idea of what the job as a secretary means, and it shouldn’t be too time consuming. I also got approached to be the treasurer as well, because without one, the church will have to close. I could do it, after all, the lady who currently does it, writes it all in a book and doesn’t even have internet banking.
So where would the evangelism come in? I want to be out with people, talking about Jesus. I can see that admin is another ministry and I would do it to my best, I really need some Godly guidance on this!
And most important. No one has asked me what I believe, what my position is on things like the gifts of Holy Spirit, this is a Baptist church. A Deacon is after all a Godly, biblical role. Shouldn’t there be an interview or something?
