Do you know one of the reasons we, as a church, are able to minister to so many in our congregation? It’s because we have 30 Deacons who are true to their calling in the New Testament: to be servants of the Church.
These men provide counsel and support for the Pastors, assist in ministering to the membership, and work to promote unity of Spirit within the Church. They are called to visit those in the hospitals, make calls of encouragement, handle emergencies, and visit those in nursing homes or who are homebound.
The criteria for FBCCov Deacons: men who love the Lord, are faithful/consistent in attendance, support the church financially, and are involvement in activities/ministries of the church.
Below are the men who have agreed to serve in this capacity for a two-year term. The first column was affirmed last year with their two-year term running through 2024. The second column are the men whose two-year term starts January 1st and will run through 2025.
