MINISTRY
Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer
your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God-this
is your spiritual act of worship. Do not conform any longer to
the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing
of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's
will is-his good, pleasing and perfect will.
Romans 12:1-2
We are given many
opportunities through Aley Church to serve God's people. We are working
to provide you more specific ways to serve in the Church. We have
developed Ministry Teams that meet from 6:00-7:00 every Sunday night.
The Praise Team leads all Youth Worship services. The Drama Team provides
skits for Adult and Youth Worship services. We will also begin a Banner-Making
Team to provide our church with beautiful art to display.
MINISTRY EVENTS
"Ministry" is the
youth word for worship. In a nutshell ministry is showing others
the love that God has shown us. We believe ministry is important
because the Greatest Commandment in Matthew 22:37-40, Jesus replied,
"'Love the Lord your God with all you heart and with all
your soul; and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest
commandment. And the second is like it, 'Love your neighbor as
yourself.' All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.'"
Everything Jesus did was born out of love. When He was healing
people physically, teaching people spiritually or providing for
the material needs of people, He was showing them God's love.
He was ministering to them. We have a number of different ways
that you can be a part of ministry at Aley Church. There are always
needs in the Children's Ministry for youth workers. We have a
great music program that we would love you to be a part of as
well. If you have a burden for a particular ministry within the
church or community and you need guidance on how to begin, let
Dave Warner know so we can all work together for God's glory.
