Serving with Honor (men only)

For Men | 5 Weeks

Location: Faith Church East (5526 State Rd. 26 East, Lafayette)

Course description: A major building block for a healthy church is men who are maturing in their faith and taking on significant servant-leader roles in the church. We believe the Scripture describes two church offices to which these men are called - pastors and deacons. Faith Church is committed to building its ministry through the development of godly men who will assume those church offices. There are many ways to prepare to serve in one of those offices; one way is to attend this class. This class will cover the biblical requirements and roles for service as a deacon at Faith Church.
