Profile of a Volunteer

The job of my pastor is a volunteer job... no one pushed him or coercied him he said I WILL!!
Some of his duties include:
Being  responsible for providing the senior leadership and oversight of the church.
With God’s help, he will serve as the chief visionary to lead the church forward in fulfilling God’s purpose. He is expected to contribute to the team spirit of the staff through fellowship, encouragement, cooperation, prayer support and other appropriate ways, as he serves his Lord Jesus Christ
Provide for the overall health and welfare of the church. To be the primary preacher of the Word of God. This shall be done with love, faithfulness, impartiality and fearfulness knowing that he will be held accountable for the welfare of the flock (Heb. 13:17).See that Bible teaching is a primary function of the church.To conduct weddings and funerals, to see that related counseling is done.
To administer communion, perform baptisms and baby dedications.To work to facilitate peace among members of the staff and congregation; to seek to win back the estranged and to reconcile those with broken relationships, particularly when such conflict threatens the welfare of the church; at times, to work with the church leadership council to determine solutions to some problems of this nature.
To work with the administrator to develop new ministries and help with the overseeing of the current ministries.To oversee and lead other pastoral staff in their related ministries, keeping a uniform
“temperature” of the church.
To serve as an Elder on the Church leadership council.



His work has positively impacted others because over the 17 years that I have been there I have seen many saved, healed, delivered and set free from his pastorialship. 

A "take-away" message that is relative to his work in terms of my own volunteer efforts and advocacy is that "People are able to do what they really want to do." Our Pastor in an effort to help his lay people become more committed to the Lord and to the church always makes this statement and I believe that it also rings true in volunteering and working with families and children.

To lead the church in being a praying church. To call for corporate prayer times and
prayer and fasting times, to see that prayer is made for all people and places.
