Deacons serve as HELPERS.

They support our pastor and staff, take an active role in the ministries of Liberty, continuously looks for areas of need and move to meet those needs. 

Deacons serve as HEALERS. 

They utilize the Word of God to comfort those in need, support the church family in times of crisis, and are peacemakers in times of strife. 

Deacons serve as HARVESTERS. 

They embrace the Great Commission and commit to practice intentional evangelism. Deacons are mission-minded, making every effort to participate in missional activites, freely giving their own time, talents, and treasures to see God's Kingdom come.
