Light Bearers
The Senior Adult Ministry of Deep Creek Baptist Church, Called the Light Bearers, seeks to promote a clear understanding of the unique gifts, and fully utilize the expert abilities of adults, 55 years of age and older.
Senior Adults are an invaluable resource to the church, as they have a wealth of knowledge, experience, and generally more flexibility in arranging their daily lives in order to support the mission and purpose of Jesus Christ.
In depth Bible study fellowships are conducted for Senior Adults on Sunday Morning, Wednesday evening, as well as, other times for special studies.
Senior Adults are faithfully serving in every major ministry at Deep Creek Baptist Church. They serve as Bible teachers, committee chairpersons, deacons and ushers. The Senior Adults are also actively involved in our Sunday morning Celebration Choir and our seasonal productions. Joyful Sounds, our Senior Adult Choir, ministers in music at local nursing homes and hospitals.
Joyful Sound

Threads of Hope
Crochet group that meets weekly on Tuesdays from 1:00-3:00 to crochet afghans and prayer shawls for hospice and ICU patients, make salvation dolls for missionaries to use with children here and in other countries and also support the Crisis Pregnancy Center through various projects.
