Ministry Information

Youth Ministry Mission Statement:

It is our intent to assist our youth in not just understanding and recognizing their appointment to salvation, but to also recognize God's plan and purpose in, for and through their lives especially as Christians in our communities where they serve as witnesses to the truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ to other young people.

It is also our intent to help perfect that which has already been placed on the inside of them: to nurture and stir up their gifts; to seek out and activate the power of the Holy Spirit; and to arouse the perfect brotherly love of God, so that success for them will come by way of accurate knowledge, through Christian and secular education; faith, through daily living as they trust God for direction; and their obedience and love for God.  And, finally helping them to understand that, as Christians, we can have fun and enjoy the fellowship of others in the process of seeking to win them to Christ, all within the perimeters of our church vision of:        UP-Reach        IN-Reach         Out-Reach

New Members Team

The new members team has been established as the introductory and foundational teaching component of the Pleasant Green Missionary Baptist Church with it’s intent being grounded in the word of God as found in Matthew 28:19-20 “…and make disciples of all nations…” therefore, it is the mission of the New Members Team to receive, welcome and minister to the initial needs of all new and reinstated members of the Pleasant Green Missionary Baptist Church. It is also our mission to nurture, to encourage and to “teach them to observe all things” as commanded by the word of God. This will all be done while focusing on the Upreach, Inreach, and Upreach components of our mission.

 

 

 

Baptism Ministry

            The purpose of the Baptism Ministry is to put God first in everything we say and do when preparing baptismal candidates whom hve chosen to accept Christ as their personal savior. Baptism takes place on the third Sunday of every month. For we know baptism is an outward act which signifies an inward decision. The committee spiritually prays for all candidates that they keep the faith and know they made the right decision.

 

 

 

Web/ Tech Ministry

            The web/tech ministry is to teach and increase the technological ability of those in and around the church. This includes the entire community and all others who have a desire to learn and maintain technical capabilities concerning the use of computers and it’s peripheral components fot the enhancement of spiritual, educational, and career advancement. Each member commits to give their time and talent for the glory of God; that God would be pleased in the process we take to add to his kingdom through the medium of the computer and the internet (world wide web). It is the ultimate concern of the ministry to maintain and stay current in the area of new hardware and software that this the Pleasant Green Missionary Baptist Church not be left behind in technological capability.

 

 

 

Men’s Ministry

Mighty Men of Valor

            The men’s ministry supports the vision set forth for the church and the work done in and around the church as it benefits the church body. Our support is both spiritual and physical. We act as mentors motivating others to join in the effort of kingdom building while following the Master’s plan; to go and teach all nations…teaching them to observe all things that He has commanded… with the goal to lead all men to Christ.

            “The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life and he that wins souls is wise.”

            “The Lord is with thee thy mighty man of valor” Judges 6:12b

Usher Ministry

            An usher is an officer and servant of the church he or she serves.. The church usher assists the pastor in making the service a spiritual success by putting the congregation in the right frame of mind to receive the message. Ushers meet and greet members and guests with a pleasant smile, a warm welcome, and directs them to comfortable seats. An usher also ensures that perfect order is kept in and around the church during the services.

            Ushers are forerunners – for we prepare the church for guests and members by being the first to arrive at the church. We receive the order of the day from the pastor, see that the church is in proper condition to receive membership and guests, and we make sure church programs, offering envelopes, fans, and any other material to be distributed to the congregation is in the proper place.

            Church ushers play an important part in the church program and our conduct is a reflection of the church. Remember, when we become an usher, we should always have the mindset of an usher whether in uniform or not, or whether on duty or not.
