Deacon Selection 2006
(Online Nomination
Form)
8Deacons, likewise, are to be men worthy of
respect, sincere, not indulging in much wine, and not pursuing
dishonest gain. 9They must keep hold of the deep truths
of the faith with a clear conscience. 10They must first
be tested; and then if there is nothing against them, let them
serve as deacons.
11In the same way, their wives are to be women
worthy of respect, not malicious talkers but temperate and
trustworthy in everything.
12A deacon must be the husband of but one wife
and must manage his children and his household well. 13Those
who have served well gain an excellent standing and great
assurance in their faith in Christ Jesus.
-- 1 Timothy
3:8-13
God saw the need in his plan for deacons -- special servants
who carried out the work set forth by the elders.
He gave specific qualities men were to meet before they served
as deacons.
Please think carefully about the men who fit into the
silhouette of God's deacons as described above. Pray for them. Ask
them of their interest. Then, be ready to nominate those men to
serve on Sunday, August 27.
You can use the form inserted into the the bulletin or click here
