 If you are interested in the Lay Servant Ministries program, please contact your district director for an application form. This annual report form is required each year to maintain enrollment. It asks the lay speaker to reflect on the previous year and list areas of ministry as well as other discipleship questions. Yes, lay servants are accountable to our church families, The United Methodist Church, and, most especially, to God.
