Christian Education Ministry Team
(Adapted from the Confession of Faith)
God’s words and actions in creation, providence, judgment, and redemption are witnessed to by the covenant community in the scriptures of the Old and New Testaments. In the scriptures, God speaks about creation, sin, judgment, salvation, the church, and the growth of disciples. To understand the scriptures, persons must have the illumination of God’s own Spirit. Persons should study scriptures in their historical settings, compare scripture with scripture, listen to the church's witness throughout the centuries, and share insights with others in the covenant community. Christian Education is one of many ways we learn, grow, fellowship, build community and serve.
The Christian Ed Ministry Team working with the Pastor:
- Will work to create spaces for safe dialogue, transformation, and deeper thought.
- Will have a basic understanding of what the denomination offers regarding resources and curriculum. (www.cpcmc.org)
- Will have a working knowledge of the classes offered at FCPC Lubbock and the curriculum used. And at times making recommendation for specific curriculum.
- Will promote classes for our congregation and guests to attend.
- CE will work with those in Children and Youth Ministry, offering support (recruiting teachers/volunteers, filling placements when needed, hosting CE events, serving as a sounding board, and providing advice to staff and volunteers).
- This team will seek, nurture, and equip others to become surrendered followers of Jesus Christ as a people inspired, empowered, and used by God to change lives through prayers and service with the love of Christ Jesus.
