UPCOMING EVENTS AND SCHEDULE

Practice Schedule
Monthly Junior Deacon practices occur on the Saturday before every second Sunday.

To better accommodate those involved in athletic programs, practice will now begin at 4:00 PM and will run for 1½ hours.

Attendance at practice is one of the requirements for serving as a Junior Deacon.
Volunteer & Service Activities
We have several impactful service events:

• Feeding the Homeless – January
• Houston Food Bank Service Day – March
• Nursing Home Devotion & Bingo – June
• Back-to-School Free Haircuts – July
• Fall Festival – October
• Senior Citizens BINGO Breakfast – October
Summer Christian Camp
We will be attending a weeklong Summer Christian Camp in New Ulm, Texas (June 01 - 05, 2026).

Participation for all Junior Deacons will be fully sponsored by the Junior Deacon sponsors.

All church youth ages 10–17 will also be invited to attend at their own expense.
Throughout the year, we also anticipate additional brotherhood-building activities as funding permits.
The year is shaping up to be very busy and exciting. We appreciate your continued support as we work to train and guide these young brothers into the Godly men we desire them to become.

For questions, suggestions, or additional information, please feel free to contact the Junior Deacon Ministry.
