The Deacons of Metropolitan Baptist Church are serving willingly, joyfully and creatively. I appreciate their positive, proactive leadership. Usually Deacons’ meetings are charged with enthusiasm and encouragement.

As the first deacons in Acts 6, your MBC Deacons are carefully administering the tangible, physical properties and finances of the church. As the first deacons, they see their ministry as a spiritual one, relying on the Holy Spirit. As the first deacons, they are people of wisdom and faith.

Lately they have accomplished a lot. You have observed the re-sealing and striping of our parking lot. This recent improvement enhances the appearance of our campus and helps create a good first impression. Perhaps you also have noticed the beautiful, new grass that has been planted on the south and west sides of our church building. Entrance ramps for the handicapped will make it easier for people in wheelchairs to enter the doors on the north side of the church building. Thank you, Deacons, for these recent improvements to our facilities.

In addition, our Deacons serve the church by administering communion and serving those who are candidates for baptism. Under the leadership of Chairman Tyle North, our Deacons have been faithful and effective in serving the church. Take time to say thank you to a Deacon.

During this season of the year, the Deacons are involved in finalizing the development of a budget for the next church year, and in receiving recommendations and reports from various committees including the Personnel Committee, Building Committee, Missions Committee, and Finance Committee.

Cordially,
Pastor Randy
