Deacon Development
Qualified Deacons are vital for your church's health
Healthy, servant-hearted deacons are vital to the life and ministry of the church. At Evergreen Coaching and Consulting, we help churches identify, train, and install qualified deacons who serve as lead servants — exercising strong, humble leadership in practical ministry while supporting the elders (servant leaders) and advancing the overall mission of the church.
Our process equips your team to build a strong, unified deacon ministry that provides faithful leadership in care, mercy, and service, strengthening the whole church body.
What does it involve?
Our Deacon Development Coaching is a practical, ongoing partnership designed to help your church build and maintain a healthy, biblically qualified deacon team who serve as lead servants. For $200 per month, you receive:
- Bi-monthly coaching calls with Tim or Kirk to guide your team through the entire process
- Proven processes and step-by-step guidance for recruiting, training, and installing deacons
- Deacon expectations documents and templates (clear standards, assessment tools, training materials, installation outlines, etc.)
- Culture building to foster joy in serving alongside each other as a unified deacon team
- One onsite visit where we assess potential deacon candidates alongside your team — this also serves as hands-on training so your church can confidently repeat the process in the future
Travel expenses for the onsite visit are additional and billed separately.
Everything is customized to your church’s size, culture, and current needs. Our goal is to equip you to develop faithful lead servants who strengthen your church’s leadership, care, and ministry for years to come.
