Deacons Ministry

The office of Deacon appears in the new testament as "a servant running through the dust to serve."  The deacon is called upon to assist the pastor and therefore is to serve in the true sense of the term "helper."  The deacon serves closely with the pastor, assisting him with the spiritual aspects of the church.

The Deacons of Original Mount Pleasant MB Church are active men whose responsibility it is to assist the pastor with the sacraments of the church, the visiting of the sick & bereaved, as well as providing other acts of benevolence that are to be shown toward the membership.  Acts 6 solidifies the need for deacons.
