Deacon's Ministry

Here for the Community

The mission of the Deacons of Bellefield Presbyterian Church is to be faithful and loving servants of the Lord toward Bellefield congregants as well as members of our neighboring Oakland community, specifically upholding the “love” and “serve” tenets of the vision of Bellefield: “love share grow and serve".

The Deacons’ areas of service for both Bellefield congregants and Oakland community members include supporting the Bellefield pastoral staff, prayer and visitation of congregants, providing supplemental food/grocery items, meeting financial needs, providing transportation, facilitating memorial services, creating partnerships with neighborhood organizations (UPMC Presbyterian Chaplains office and the Blessing Board) that align with the mission of the Deacons, and performing other acts of service as directed by the Session.
