This fall Creekstone is gathering folks who want to be part of our "Launch Team," which is the group within a new church who owns the vision for the ministry and is committed to serving on various ministry teams in order to see the ministry plan implemented.  Here is the covenant.

In light of the gospel and by God's grace, as part of the Launch Team:

1. I will attend weekly Sunday gatherings.
2. I will serve faithfully on a ministry team that lines up with my personal gifts and passions for ministry.
3. I will expect commitment, but not perfection, from others on my ministry team.
4. I will pursue reconciliation with any with whom I experience conflict by freely repenting/confessing my faults and quickly forgiving others.
5. I will approach McKay if I ever find myself in disagreement with Creekstone's philosophy of ministry (the why and how we do what we do).
6. I will invite and bring new people to Creekstone gatherings, and will welcome new folks who attend Creekstone gatherings.
7. I will avoid gossip (talking negatively, or confessing someone else's sins) about individuals at all costs.
8. I will be teachable.
9. I will encourage others on the team, showing appreciation for their role and ministry.
10. I will hunger and thirst for a deeper understanding of and experience with the truth of the gospel.

If you are interested in being part of Creekstone's Launch Team, just go to our website (www.creekstonechurch.com), click the Ministry Team link, download an application, and send it back to me via email (mckaycaston@mac.com).  You may also sign up for our Ministry Teams at the same link, or here at one of these links:
