Where Can I Serve?

Jesus told us, his disciples, to make disciples of all nations. One of the most important values of Broadway Community Church is our mission to the world. It begins in our own community, and spreads overseas to every nation. Broadway Community members are involved in a variety of ministries from things as simple as mowing the church lawn,  preparing the church bulletins, teaching our children, to becoming a mission in another country!

 

Missions

 Broadway Community is thrilled to be part of the spread of God’s Kingdom around the world. We are active in sending missionaries and supporting these missionaries with our money and with our prayers. We have missionaries that we support all over the world.  We encourage all of our people to respond to God’s call for laborers, whether it means that they move to a foreign country or live and minister in our own community.

Every Christmas our missions team also supports Operation Christmas Child which provides 100’s of shoeboxes filled with all kinds of goodies, to needy children all over the world.  Over the last 5 years, Broadway has sent out almost 1,300 shoeboxes!

 

Music & Drama

God-honoring worship is something we strive for. Many church members get involved in our music and drama ministry. Some play their instruments. Some are vocalists. Others are involved in the choir. Still others get involved in drama. These volunteers are an important part of the ministry of Broadway Community Church, using their talents and gifts to glorify God.

 

Ushers/Greeters

The usher/greeters team at Broadway Community Church fills an important role. They are involved in directing attendees to their seats, ensuring the safety of the building during services, guiding traffic, helping visitors, answering questions, providing direction, greeting new visitors in the sanctuary,  unlocking doors, locking doors, and generally ensuring that the service can proceed problem-free. The usher/greeter team is a servant-hearted group of men and women whose ministry is integral to church life.

 

Sound & Media

Using sound and media to spread the gospel is a privilege of Broadway Community Church. In an age of widespread technology, we have a stewardship to use these tools as best as possible for kingdom purposes. All of our weekly sermons are uploaded to our website in audio formats. We also maintain an active Facebook  feed for additional church communication.

 

Prayer Warriors

Prayer cannot be overestimated. Prayer moves the hand of God. Broadway Community Church is a body of believers dependent upon prayer, and committed to God’s sovereignty. Each Sunday, during Sunday School hours, a team of volunteers is praying for the ministry of the Word. At all times a prayer chain is active, for anyone who wishes to have our body of believers pray for them and their needs.

 

Children’s Ministry

Children’s Church

In order to give our children the best Bible teaching possible, Broadway Community holds a children’s church service in conjunction with the main service. This special time gives kids more opportunity for interaction and learning in a context and manner that may be better suited to their age and learning styles. Our friendly children’s church volunteers have an endless stream of creativity.

 

Pioneer Clubs/VBS

Broadway Community offers a “christian scout” type program, which offers our children the opportunity to earn badges.  These badges range from Bible badges to life-lesson or christian themed craft badges.  
Pioneer Clubs are Bible-based, relationship-focused, and fun for kids and volunteers! You can trust Pioneer Clubs for application-oriented inductive Bible study, Scripture memory, life skills development, and an emphasis on  discipleship and outreach.

During the summer months Broadway Community continues the teaching of God via a Vacation Bible School Program.  Rather than just using the VBS program for one week, we go through the whole summer to ensure children remain engaged in the purpose.

Both programs are offered on Wednesday Nights starting at 6:30PM

 

Sunday School

Every Sunday morning Broadway Community offers several Sunday School classes for children and adults.  The classes are designed to bring our church body into a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ.  This is a time of learning the Word of God, growing in our spiritual walk, and spending time in fellowship with other believers.

All Sunday School classes begin at  9:45AM.  We offer classes for adult and 3 to 6th grade.  Nursery is provided as well for newborns and children up to 2 years of age.

 

Outreach

Our Outreach Ministry is dedicated to assisting our community in many different ways.  Providing food, clothing, job search assistance to name a few.  Tons of food is given away each year.  The ministry members also prepare and distribute food baskets to families for Thanksgiving as well as provide toys for children at Christmas.

House of Hope

The House of Hope was founded for the purpose of creating a safe,loving and structured family environment where individuals can grow until they learn how to be a happy functional family unit.  This is a nine month residential program for men based on Christ-centered curriculum.

 

Facilities/Events

Here at Broadway Community Church we have our Main Sanctuary, Fellowship Hall and Life Center/gym  available to rent for special occasions.  Our facilities have been used for many different events such as  birthday parties, weddings, yard sales, luncheons,dinners and more.  There are many different possibilities available with the use of our facilities.  We want to help make your event memorable.

 

Youth

Ignite Youth student ministries meets on Wednesday night at 6:30PM in the Life Center.  Ignite Youth  is for youth in grades 7-12 that have a desire to build a relationship with Jesus Christ.  Each week they meet for fellowship, Bible study and gym time.  

 

Women’s Ministry

Women’s Ministry of Broadway is about connecting to, communicating with, and caring for each other!  Our women participate in many different events and host some of our own.  We are open to all women.

 

Men’s Ministry

Our Men’s Ministry desires that all men be Men of Faith!  Our endeavor is to offer these things to make this a reality.  We have a men’s breakfast the 2nd Saturday of each month @8AM, as well as other projects and opportunities for spiritual growth and ministry.

 

Care Ministry

The Broadway Care Ministry is set up to assist families/individuals dealing with sickness or the loss of a loved one.  The people involved in this ministry make hospital visits and also provide food when a person is ill.  Our Care Ministry is dedicated to helping people through difficult times.
