Serving Others

One of the things we want to do as followers of Jesus is to serve each other and also our community. Below is a list of ways we can serve each other. To see how we are serving our community go here.

Pastoral Care Ministries

Visitation and Hospital Care

Provide support and encouragement to people who are unable to regularly attend a small group, family group or worship gathering.

Family Groups

Provide leadership by facilitating activities which help build community and help us connect with each other. There is also a place for co-leaders to help with groups. For a fuller explanation go here.

This is an opportunity to help children learn about Jesus and his love for them. Lead a small group, help with set up and clean up.

Get Real Ministry

Our ministry team offers relevant programmes and events that connect students into relationships with Christ and one another. Help create an event, build relationships, be a builder of dreams

Mentoring Ministry

It's about impact. It's about passion. It's about life. It's about knowing God. Be a big person in a young persons life who they know they is interested in them as a person. Come shape the future.

Small Group Ministry

Real life change occurs in small groups, and every group needs a leader, many need apprentices… leaders in training. Step out and be part of this ministry by apprenticing in a small group.

Library Ministry

Help look after a range of books which are available for people to borrow. Requires someone willing to care for and ensure the return of books.

Prayer Ministries

Join a group of people who pray for people as needs are made known.

Prayer on a Sunday Morning

Join a group of people who pray for us as we gather to worship. Meets 9.30am in side chapel.

Worship Ministries

Welcomers

A smiling face, a warm handshake, and a friendly greeting make people feel welcome and provide a quick information reference for first time guests.

Music Team

Encourage worship through the use of music. Requires people who can sing or play a musical instrument. Also people who are willing to prepare word sheets, OHT's and recording of copyright information.

Sound and Video Team

The sound people are responsible for ensuring that people can hear clearly what is happening and record the worship for those who were unable to attend. The video team are responsible for helping with the provision of PowerPoint's, video feeds, use of OHP etc during worship gatherings.

Creative Communication Team

These people provide us with puppets, dramas and other means of creatively communicating the gospel.

Morning Tea Roster

At West we all get to take a turn serving others by helping serve tea and coffee following our worship gathering. Feel free to add your name if it isn't on the roster.

Facilities Ministries

Cleaning Roster

Like the morning tea roster you get to help serve by keeping our facilities spick and span. Feel free to add your name to the roster. There is always room for one more on this list.

Facility Care Team

This is the "behind the scenes crew." Painting, cleaning, fixing, and building projects are just some of the things to be done around the building. Flexible hours all during the week available to fit your schedule. Requires someone to keep a booking schedule on the use of the facilities by both church groups and outside groups who want to use our premises.

Grounds and Gardens
