The Congregational Support and Community Outreach Ministry Action Team
The Congregational Support and Community Outreach Ministry Action Team seeks to understand the congregation and support their needs both individually and congregationally. This relationship is lived out through the gifts and givers of our congregation. We seek to enrich our relationship individually and congregationally as we give our time, talent and treasures to Ascension St. Matthew’s Church.
