SUPPER MINISTRY
PURPOSE:
To ensure that everyone who arrives for our worship service receive a friendly welcome as they join us for fellowship after the service. To serve our church family cheerfully and respectfully in love.
VISION:
Our vision for this ministry is to create an environment where new people feel welcomed and accepted. Through the simple provision of a drink (eg. tea and coffee) and some finger foods (eg. biscuits and cakes) we are encouraging people to stay behind after a service and connect with other people in a relaxed environment. In addition to this, a smiling face or friendly greeting at the tea and coffee counter can relax a person who is feeling stressed and in need of God’s love.
