The Fundamental Work of the Deacons: Caring for the Believing Poor Outside the Congregation

The Fundamental Work of the Deacons: Caring for the Believing Poor Outside the Congregation

  • Popular
  • Douglas J. Kuiper

Deacons are called to care for the poor and the needy. Is this care limited to those only within the church? This article argues that deacons also serve their congregation and Christ by caring for the believing poor outside of their congregation. The principle for this care is the unity of the body of Christ. Guidelines are given on how this is to be done.
