Sis. Laureen Haynes - Ministry of Helps -  Sister Laureen Haynes is the director of our Ministry of Helps, which includes our Ushers and Greeters Ministry and Shepherd's Care Ministry.
Ushers and Greeters work to maintain the quality of the worship atmosphere and the flow of the worship service by providing volunteers for service and assistance to the pastor, ministers and congregation. An Usher / Greeter is often the first person that worshipers meet when they arrive at church. The greeter thus has the opportunity and the responsibility to represent the rest of the assembly in offering hospitality. A warm smile and word of welcome that reflects God's love for them can help all worshipers enter more easily and more fully into the service.
The Shepherd's Care Ministry or Pastor’s Aide gives support and assistance to the Pastor and First Lady, Ministers and their families; to assist with church programs and/or services. This ministry also serves as armor bearers through prayer, watchfulness and intercession to assist, lift up and to ensure that the ministry staff is covered by prayer and protected against any enemy, spiritual or physical.
