As you know, members from the Deacons and Outreach Team have met, to organize this ministry that will match member’s needs with those who have the time, skill and/or energy to meet them.   Enclosed in this issue of the Gazette is a small questionnaire on which you can identify either a skill you have, or a need.    There will be a receptacle in the church to place it in and the joint Deacons and Outreach folks will compile the information.   The name we are considering for our new ministry is “Doulos” which means “servant” in Greek.  But we are using the term as it was used in conjunction with the Biblical Festival of Jubilee!  During that festival slaves were given the option to be freed, or to serve their master voluntarily, for life, out of love.  That is the spirit of this new opportunity to serve each other in love.
