Salt and Light Community Ministry
There are multiple Ministry opportunities availabe in the Brown's Chapel "Salt and Light" Community Ministry. Jesus told His fledgling church, "Ye are the Salt of the earth". By design of God, salt becomes an "Agent of Change" to what ever it falls on. Salt is no good to anyone and it cannot cause any kind of change if it stays in the box or the salt shaker; it cannot cleanse, it cannot season, it cannot add flavor and it cannot preserve until it is applied. The same truth holds for the church, we will never be "Agents of Change" as long as we huddle and hide in our steepled buildings and ignore the battles that rage in the communities we live in. Of spiritual and even secular necessity the church must be more than just another building on the street. As disciples of Christ we are called to serve in our communities. We must be willing to agressively confront and openly resist the negative forces that seek to destroy our members and the community at large; and, we must seek opportunites to engage and cooperate with all of the positive infuences in our communites (schools, governments, social services, Senior Citizens). If you feel led of the Lord to serve your community please contact Pastor Lafayette Funches for additional information.
