West
Church Ministry is greatly increased through the efforts
of our many volunteers who are highly valued. A church
gathered around Christ is empowered by His Spirit
to minister to each other and to serve the world for
the glory of God.
At West, we practice the “priesthood
of all believers”. Every believer is a minister
for Jesus Christ and has a part in building Christian
community by exhibiting love, joy, peace, patience,
kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control
in all their interactions with each other. Volunteers
are deeply appreciated as they serve out of a heart
that loves God through His Son Jesus. West values
godly leadership. Leaders are considered godly when
they exhibit the character of Jesus and when they
follow the leadership of Jesus rather than their own
selfish ambitions. Leaders are selected according
to spiritual maturity, spiritual gifts, passion, skills
and experience. We value godly leaders as they mobilize
flexible teams of volunteers to do the good work of
ministry through the power of the Holy Spirit. Membership
is not required to participate in the various ministries
listed here, however to be a ministry leader membership
is a prerequisite.
