Greeting Team
CONNECTING ROLES
The Greeting Team welcomes people as they arrive at our Sunday gatherings. The greeters are some of the first people to interact with the congregation, and they greet in a way that communicates love, joy, humility and a servant heart of Christ. This does not only mean welcoming people as they arrive, but also being able to direct people to different areas of the church.

The Serving the Servants Team provides food for the staff and volunteers that serve during both services on Sunday mornings. The Pastors, Elders, Staff, and Volunteers work hard to feed our souls through the teaching of God’s word. Through this team, we have the opportunity to operate as a family and can show our love for those whom God has placed in our lives as shepherds by providing food!
Visual Team
CONNECTING ROLES
Our Visual Team is in charge of projecting announcement slides, lyrics, scripture verses, and message notes on the sanctuary screens during our Sunday gatherings.
Sound Team
CONNECTING ROLES
Our Sound Team arrives early on Sundays with our worship team to assist with set up, monitoring, and adjusting audio equipment to make sure things are sounding the best they possibly can. If you have a heart to serve in this way, and have some experience running sound, we’d love to meet you!
