	<BLOCKQUOTE><br>
      <DIV align=justify><font size="4">The term "deacon" is derived from the Greek word <em>diakonos,</em> which is usually translated "servant."
	The noun form comes from a verb which means "to serve," probably originally in the sense of waiting on tables. It came to be used to signify
	a broad range of types of service.<br><br>
	<u><em><b><em>What is Deacon Ministry</em></u><em>?<br>
	<br>
	The Bible outlines the need for Deacons as:<br>
	</em>
	<LI><em>Serving the needs and concerns of those in the
	congregation<br>
	</em>
	<LI><em>Allowing more time for the Disciples (pastoral leadership) to continue with the ministry of the Word and prayer.
	-Acts 6:1-6<br>
	</em>
	<LI><em>At Providence, the Deacon servants participate in the weekly <strong>GROW</strong> (Go Reach Our World) visitation, held 
	  every Monday evening, starting at 6:30 p.m. All church members are invited to be a part of GROW visitation</em>	</blockquote>
