Servant leadership is a leadership philosophy in which the goal of the leader is to serve, not just lead. As stated by its founder, Robert K. Greenleaf, "a Servant Leader should be focused on, Do those served grow as persons? Do they, while being served, become healthier, wiser, freer, more autonomous, more likely themselves to become servants?"

On May 30th, we opened our doors to in-person Worship in our beautiful Sanctuary. This was accomplished by the work of so many people behind the scenes by people who are the epitome of Servant Leadership. They worked many hours and made tough decisions without asking for anything in return! Though the work of the Reopen team was vital to the success of coming back together, it was the Board of Directors that ultimately lead the Church during these past months making sure we were safe and always keeping the SunCoast MCC family as the focus of their decisions.

Some of these decisions included how to save money like cancelling services such as cleaning and trash pickup. SunCoast MCC family members Bob L., Bob S., and Peter stepped up and took on the responsibility of cleaning the church as well as taking the trash each week. Even though the Church was closed, we were still working from our building ensuring we meet the needs of our community.

Grace, Love and Peace,
