Culinary Ministry
The Culinary Ministry provides the support and service to all ministries of New Vision Church. We support the ministries for meetings, training workshops and special services with meals and/or refreshments. We also serve repast for members in bereavement, wedding receptions and other church supported functions. The Culinary Ministry oversees the operation of the kitchen, including its use, cleanliness, and maintenance of the church kitchen and its equipment. This ministry is adaptable to ever evolving circumstances with vision to the goal of “Strengthening the bonds of Family through Fellowship”. Hebrews 10:24
Anytime we are called upon to serve is an opportunity we graciously accept to show our love for God’s people by serving our members and guests with a well-balanced meal. “Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.” Hebrews 13:2 This Ministry is lead by Sista Charlotte Cook.
