We’re committed to raising up the next generation of church leaders. The residency at Providence is a nine month, hands-on intensive where you’ll get paid to grow and explore a specific area of ministry on our church staff. Residents will spend most of their time working within a specific ministry of Providence and learning what it takes to run an effective ministry within the context of the local church, while also occasionally serving in other areas of the church. Residents will also receive biblical training through weekly Resident Meetings and reading assignments.
Deacons
The deacons of Providence Church are servants of the church. The biblical role of deacons is to care for the physical and logistical needs of the church so that the elders can concentrate on their primary calling (Acts 6:1-6). Every deacon must unequivocally meet the standards and qualifications found in 1 Timothy 3:8-13. The deacon body cares for the needs of the church in four primary areas: physical needs, benevolence, facility needs, and ministry operations needs.
