“Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; and there are varieties of service, but the same Lord; and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God who empowers them all in everyone. To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good.”
The ministry and mission of the local church is not to be carried out by a select few but by the involvement of all the members of the church. The church grows and matures in the Lord as each person is equipped to serve and encourage others (Ephesians 4:11-17). Using our gifts and abilities to serve others is an important way that we learn to faithfully follow the example set for us by Jesus (Mark 10:45). One way to serve others in the church is by getting involved with a service team.

Coffee
