How to Support Dayspring Staff
As members of the church, if you feel specially called to support our staff as a whole or an individual staff member, please call the church office or reach out to Pastor Rusty. Ways that you can support our staff daily:
Be in prayer for our staff and our church. We need the Lord’s anointing on all we do in the life of our community.
Offer notes and words of encouragement to our church staff - you might be surprised to find out that professional ministry can be incredibly challenging and isolating, and simple words of encouragement go a long way.
Offer to serve in someone’s ministry. Volunteers are the lifeblood of the church (besides Jesus, obviously), and it means a lot to have someone reach out and offer to volunteer!
