CGBC is honored to have seven men currently serving the church in the office of Deacon. There faithfulness to the Word, the ministry and the Pastor is one of the key elements in the continued forward direction of the ministry. Each man possesses a spirit of cooperation and willingness to serve. That spirit provides the ministry with confidence and unity as it continues to reach out ever farther to a world in need of a Saviour.
The chairman of our board of deacons is Brother Stan Hostetter. He is joined by six faithful brethren: Brother Tommy Tedder, Brother Hurley Walker, Brother John Miller, Brother James Smithey, and Brother Phil Fagg. Each man, having given testimony of their faith and trust in Jesus Christ, has proven himself faithful to the Lord in their personal lives as well as service to the Lord here at Cherry Grove. They carry a zeal for souls and sound doctrine that supports our purpose and vision.
Brother Jim Zeimer served as a deacon at Cherry Grove from the summer
of 1974, until his passing on Wednesday, September 8, 2010. We thank God for his
faithful service over thirty-six
years.
Brother Mansfield Ball served several years as deacon at Cherry Grove Baptist Church. He was survived by his wife Geraldin. He is greatly missed.
