Virginia has been a member of Community since 1981, and full-time staff for most of those years. She was an honors graduate of Concordia College, Ann Arbor, in 1985; and was Community’s first Director of Evangelism. After pursuing a career in computers, Ginny (as she is referred to around here) returned to C.L.C. as our part-time Computer Manager…now overseeing the computers systems. It wasn’t long before Ginny was full-time and Director of Caring was added. She is very knowledgeable of computers and software, but is most at home visiting the sick and praying for the needs of our people.
Ginny’s Responsibilities Include:
· Create and maintain a system of contact and encouragement for members who are missing from worship;
including cards, emails, and phone calls.
· Continually seek a prayer life that reflects the Lord’s mandate to “Pray continually” (I Th. 5:17).
· Equip, encourage and inspire others in their prayer life.
· Create and maintain prayer ministries to reflect the philosophy that nothing is accomplished without prayer, and every Christian is called to pray.
· Create and maintain card ministries in association with our Prayer Ministries.
· Equip and encourage coordinators and ministers in the goals and purposes of the cookie, hospitality, and basket ministries.
· Oversee, maintain and update computer systems.
· Enlist the assistance of a Computer Committee to help maintain the system in good working order.
