"Therefore, brethren, select from among you seven men of good reputation, full of the Spirit and wisdom, whom we may put in charge of this task..." (Acts 6:3)
Since the early days of the Christian faith, churches have appointed deacons, or servants of the church, to assist in leading and meeting the needs of the congregation. These are men elected by the church body and ordained (or set apart) for their work within the congregation.
Pleasant Ridge Baptist is blessed to have right wonderful men serving as deacons among us. These men will be happy to help you find answers to questions you may have, assist you with needs, or to simply pray with you. We are thankful for the deacons God has raised up among us.
