Sunday Teams Resident

Summary

“But Jesus called them to him and said, ‘You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. It shall not be so among you. But whoever would be great among you must be your servant, and whoever would be first among you must be your slave, even as the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.’” (Matthew 20:25-28 ESV)

One of the greatest ways a Christian can demonstrate the heart of God is by embodying the posture of a servant for others as King Jesus did for us. As a primary vehicle in our mission to love the church, the Sunday teams ministry gives our people a tangible opportunity to serve the body of Christ every week. This is achieved by inviting our people to use their giftings to help create a space for the Word of God to be preached and pure worship to be experienced during our Sunday services!
