Overcoming Darkness with the Light of Christ

Ministry Teams


The Lighthouse
seeks to equip every member to be a minister – to be involved in ministry and service in their communities and around the world. Our goal is to form Ministry Teams and, by a process of interview and discipleship, fill those teams with people who are willing to sacrifice their personal time, skills and resources to touch lives.
Teams will be formed as we gain members with a burden for specific ministries.
