Pastor's Aide

---

The Greater Eleazer Baptist Church Pastor’s Aide Ministry is designed to provide support to Pastor Barrett and his family. The goal is to show appreciation to him for his leadership and spiritual guidance in the church.

Sometimes Pastor Barrett may find himself in a position where he is burdened and emotionally drained.  After giving so much of himself to others, he may desire someone to pour back into him. It is for this reason that the Greater Eleazer Baptist Church Pastor’s Aide Ministry exist.  

Spiritual and Emotional Support System

The Pastor’s Aide committee serves as a spiritual and emotional support system for the pastor, as well as his family.  Working as a pastor’s aide committee member requires the highest level of confidentiality. Otherwise, the pastor’s personal business and needs can become gossip among church congregants.

Anticipates The Pastor’s Needs

Anything  Pastor Barrett needs, we are there to ensure he gets it.  Our goal is to ensure there is no lack for the pastor or his direct family members, including his spouse.   If Pastor Barrett needs anything during his sermons, such as water, juice or mints, we ensure that these items are on hand and made available to him. 

Pastor Appreciation

The Pastor’s Aide committee is responsible for showing emotional support and appreciation to the pastor on behalf of the other congregants. On occasion, the committee may host a celebratory service for the pastor and his family. The committee recognizes occasions such as anniversaries, birthdays and Father’s Day, etc.  If we feel that Pastor Barrett is emotionally drained and in need of a sabbatical or vacation, we are here to make sure he gets it.
