Caring Team

Greece Baptist Church has a very active Caring Team. The team consists of over a dozen devoted members who send cards, and at least once each month make phone calls or personally visit about 35 members who are no longer able to regularly attend church functions.

We also hold luncheons for those who are able to attend and take flowers to them at Easter and Christmas time. All this is done under the faithful guidance of our Associate Pastor.

Our church is what it is today because of the hard work of these homebound members. We want them to know how much we appreciate them and that they shall not be forgotten.

Welcoming Ministry

One of the ministries of our Board of Deacons is to greet and welcome visitors and members to all church services and functions. By doing this, we try to lead the congregation in the ministry of hospitality. A visitor's welcome table has been set up in the narthex to greet and supply visitors with information about our church's ministries and services. We encourage visitors to sign our guest book or sign-in pads at the end of each pew.

All visitors are greeted with a warm, friendly, welcoming hand shake. Our team tries to nurture those who return and later express an interest in becoming members. We also advocate for accessibility of the church facilities.

Visitor information is passed along to the pastors if provided. They can then follow up with welcoming notes or contact phone calls.
