Servant Spotlight: Lynne Farmer

This month’s servant spotlight is on Lynne Farmer. While most of us are aware that Lynne serves on the Sunday Morning Worship team, you may not be aware of the cards and encouragement she gives to many in our church and community. Lynne has show our church family what it looks like to have a servant’s heart even during difficult seasons of life. Thank you Lynne for your example and service in the Kingdom.

How do you serve in the church family and the community?
I serve by playing the piano for 1st service and Sunday School opening. I always try to give to the Special Offerings for missions as well as other church projects. I am on the city council and am chairperson of the cemetery committee, which has done numerous things over the past two years to improve the cemetery.

Why do you serve?
I believe that God put us on this earth to serve others just as Jesus did. I think if we can bring joy to others, it enriches everyone’s lives.

What is your favorite part about serving?
To see the joy it brings to others and to see our church and community be a better place to work, live and play.

What have you learned from serving other?
That by serving others you bring joy to their lives and in time the service enriches your life. It helps to spread Christ’s love to both the church family and the community at large.

What would you say to someone who is considering serving in a new way?
Take advantage of the opportunities Christ puts in your life. Don’t spread yourself too thin as then you are no good to anyone. Enjoy your service.
