The office of deacon is held by those ready to care for the church through practical means of compassionate service. At Capitol Hill Presbyterian, a board of deacons is committed to supporting Care Teams, who minister to the congregation in three key areas:
Making prayer available to any who seek it, whether it be by sharing specific requests through the prayer chain, meeting with a private prayer partner or a prayer team, or needs related to specific physical or spiritual healing.
Offering emotional, spiritual, and material support to those within our church and our neighborhood needing assistance with meals, clothing, and connecting with community resources.
Being close at hand to share in the joy of life events such as the birth of a child, and to offer comfort and support in illness, death, and seasons of difficulty.
