Cookie Ministry


If you have a knack for baking cookies, we need your help! You will be called only a few times a year to bake chocolate chip cookies. Join us and be an “undercover” part of our outreach to the community. Cookies are delivered by our FAITH teams during their home visits in the community.

First Serve/Ministry Opportunities

  • Cookie baking: On a rotation basis, our cooks bake cookies in their own homes and then bring them to church. These cookies are taken on FAITH visits each week.
  • Cookie sorters: At 9:00 am on Tuesdays we put the donated cookies into packets for our FAITH teams for delivery. These bags of cookies are then labeled and sealed with our church labels.
  • Observation and participation: Join us on a Tuesday morning to see if you would like to join this fun team.
