MINISTRY OPPORTUNITIES
"To each one is given a (spiritual) gift for the common good."
1 Corinthians 12:7
To love the Lord Jesus is to serve the Lord Jesus. That is a fundamental principle of a personal relationship with Christ. It is also why NEHBC expects every member to find a place of service in our church in order to contribute to the spiritual health of the church body and the one who is serving.
