Deacons
The deacons at Hughesville Baptist Church strive to fulfill the biblical model for deacons as outlined in Acts 6:1-7 and 1Timothy 3:8-13. The deacons must be men above reproach, servant leaders, and have a heart for helping the pastor(s) care for the congregation.
Ministry Teams
The deacons are divided into ministry teams that fulfill key needs within the congregation.
