DEACON RECOMMENDATIONS 
McConnell Church members - it’s time to begin prayerfully considering your recommendations for the office of deacons for the coming year. Our deacons serve for terms of three years after having been nominated and elected by the church. Nominees must be a McConnell church member for at least one year and meet the biblical requirements for serving. Paper recommendation forms are available in the Welcome Center or, if you prefer, you can make your recommendations on the church website. The deadline to make a recommendation is Sunday, June 20th.
