Our Teams

Welcome Team

Chair Colleen Craig
The Welcome Team greets new people who visit Faith Church by introducing ourselves and engaging in conversation with them. We invite them to have a cup of coffee and a treat in the Gathering Area before or after services and introduce them to others that are there. If they show an interest in learning more about Faith Church we’ll gladly answer their questions and provide them with one of our Welcome Packs to take with them. The Welcome Team’s goal is to make visitors feel comfortable so that they will return and discover why we love our Faith family.

Deacons

The Deacons of Faith U.P. Church are a team of 12 members elected by the congregation and ordained in following the ministry of Jesus Christ. We are also those who have a passion for nurturing members and families of our congregation by keeping our folks connected in Christ. Clearly Deacons are not the only ones who provide ministries of compassion and service. All Christians are charged to love their neighbors and care for one another. But the Deacons provide an organized way of bringing the love of Jesus Christ to the church and the community.

The Deacons of Faith U.P. Church look forward to serving you.
