Church creates singles ministry at First Christian
William Deskins, a former pastor now single again, becomes the church's part time singles minister as First Christian launches a one year program to serve single adults. The effort follows recommendations from the Lutheran Church in America about inclusive ministry and is financed in part by a new bequest policy using half of undesignated gifts to fund new ministries.
