Also they assist the pastor when we have special events by cooking, cleaning and decorating.

Hospital Visitation

The hospital ministry goes far beyond just making visits. It is “being there” for other during a time of need. Our ministry consists of visiting people in the hospital and ministering not only to them, but their families. Through this, we are able to build relationships with people and share in their hurts, sorrows, and even times of rejoicing. If you have a real love for people, have compassion for them, and you want to “be there” for someone and build relationships with them, this ministry is for you.

P.I.G.S. – People in God’s Service

P.I.G.S. is one of several ways Journey Church welcomes a first-time visitor to our church. In fact, if you filled out a visitor card at Journey Church, you may have already received a visit from the P.I.G.S. People In God’s Service is simply a way to let our guests know how thankful we are they have visited Journey Church. How does P.I.G.S. work? Every Monday at 6:00 p.m. P.I.G.S. meet in the Adult Learning Center (Building B). From there we head out to visitors’ homes with a P.I.G.S. cake in hand. We go to the home and deliver the cake. If the visitor is home we thank them for visiting Journey Church. We do not go inside the home, and we do not deliver any other church material. We just say thanks for coming to Journey Church and express our hope that they will come again. It’s that simple. Stop! Drop! and Roll! You may be asking: Where do the cakes come from? Who makes them? Who pays for the supplies to make the cakes? Can I be one of the P.I.G.S.? Do I have to participate every week? Can I help make the cakes? Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes, you can go out just one time a month … or just once a year. Yes, you can help make the cakes. No, you do not have to supply the supplies for making the cake—the church does that. Yes, you can be one of the P.I.G.S. It’s as easy as calling the church office to let them know you’re interested or contact the “Boss Hog” – Joey Peel – at 318-201-5131. P.I.G.S.! An exciting and fun way to bring the love of Jesus Christ and Journey Church right to the visitors’ front door. Stop! Drop! and Roll!

Worship Team

Help people praise and worship God. The mission and purpose of our Worship Team is to glorify God by creating an environment where anyone, no matter your problem or situation, can move beyond the chaos of daily life to the presence of the Lord.We humbly serve Him in a spirit of excellence, and through music, prepare hearts to receive His word and draw into a relationship with Him. Worship isn’t just a time and place, it’s a lifestyle. We all come from different walks of life, but we’re all called to worship. We’re all called to lift His name above every name. He gave it all for us, so each Sunday we long to go deeper with Him. You may know the songs, you may not, but knowing the song isn’t required to worship God. Everyone worships in their own way. Some lift their hands, some sing, some fall to their knees, and some sit and soak in His presence. Whatever it be, worship in your own way, and draw closer to the heart of Jesus with us each and every Sunday.

Pray for Rain

James highlights the power of prayer through the example of Elijah. Elijah was a human just like us, yet when he prayed earnestly for no rain, there was no rain for three and a half years. When he prayed again, the sky gave rain, and the earth produced its crops. Fervent, righteous prayer can have powerful results, demonstrating God’s ability to intervene through prayer.
