Where Can I Serve?

One of the most important values of the Montrose church of Christ is our mission to the world, and that mission begins with our own community.  Jesus told us, His disciples, to make disciples of all nations.  One of the functions of discipleship making is finding a place for people to serve God.  Our members are involved in a variety of ministries and as you look over the list I am sure that you will find a place where you can fit in.  Below you will find a list of some of the ministries we are involved in and a brief description of each.

Our Prayer Ministry

We have entitled this ministry our P.U.S.H. ministry (Pray Until Something Happens).  We believe in the power of prayer and have witnessed numerous times how God has answered our prayers in working in the lives of others.  The members pray for a number of things from physical illnesses to spiritual items.  Each week in our weekly bulletin we have a special prayer list of needs to pray for.  And approximately once a month a group will meet together for an evening and special time of prayer together.

Our Teen Ministry

We are in the process of starting a teen ministry where we will have various activities for our teens on a regular basis.  Our emphasis will be two-fold.  First, to provide a safe place were our teens and their friends can meet together and play games, visit, etc.  Second, to spend some time each meeting encouraging our teens as they strive in their walk with God.

Our Clothing Ministry

Twice a year we have a special event called “Sharing Our Blessings.”  This event usually occurs in May and October.  Each time our fellowship room is transformed into a giant giveaway area.  Members have given good used clothing, household goods, toys, etc. to be given away to anyone in need.  We feel God has blessed us and we want to “Share Our Blessings.”  This undertaking involves a number of members from gathering the items, sorting through and sizing the clothing, organizing for the big event, advertizing, and follow-up.  There is a place for every member to get involved.

Our Building and Grounds Ministry

As with any facility there is always something needing to be repaired, moved, etc.  And during the summertime there is a lot of yard work to be maintained from watering, to trimming shrubs, to mowing and pulling weeds.  Several of our men are involved in various aspects of this ministry.
