Pastor’s Aide Occasion Statement
~ September 15, 2024 ~
The Pastor’s Aide Ministry is about praise and worship. We have set aside this 3rd Sunday in September to celebrate the Pastor’s Aide Ministry. This ministry was created within the Greater Framingham Community Church over 31 years ago. Today, we give thanks to God our father for this opportunity to recommit and rededicate ourselves to the service of God through the ministry of servanthood to Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, our Pastor, our Ministerial Staff, our Church, and our Community. The Pastor’s Aide Ministry work can be traced back to the services of Mary, Phoebe, and Priscilla.
Recognizing the Pastors are a gift from God, we therefore understand our Pastor’s commitment to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Reverend Dr. J. Anthony Lloyd’s commitment, in today’s world, requires an ever-increasing excellence of ministry. He believes the Church is called to provide a ministry that unwraps individuals and families from the entrapments and entanglements of sin. Our Pastor’s day is often long and demanding. The Pastor’s Aide is there to fill the gap, to provide encouragement, a meal and prayers.
As GFCC celebrates this “Year of Authentic Faith and Highest Praise”, Hebrews 11:6, our ministry has chosen the theme “Service through Faith, Hope and Courage in Changing Times”, James 2:14-17. The Pastor’s Aide Ministry takes this moment to renew our commitment to helping our Pastor carry on the work of Kingdom building. We support and care for him as a Servant of the Lord.
Our Pastor’s Aide Ministry mission statement is derived from 1 Corinthians and reads:
“Our solemn responsibility is one of commitment to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, our Pastor and to you the Greater Framingham Community Church. We understand our unique position as a FAITHFUL SERVANT of God to uphold the Church’s principle’s, practices and policies; based upon the Bible as God’s authoritative and inspired word.” Our motto is “Ministry in a More Excellent Way.”
With loving hearts, we once again commemorate the dedication and service of three of our departed servants, Sister Mae Martin, Sister Jewel Dotson, and Sister Mavis Chung, who have gone before us to higher ground. We walk in their footsteps and shall never forget them and their giving and loving spirits.
We take this opportunity to thank you, “GFCC”, for your generosity and unwavering support. Please keep us in your prayers as we strive to fulfill our calling on this Christian journey in caring for the Pastor.
Guest Preacher
~ Minister Taylor Perry Biography ~
Minister Taylor Perry, a native of Boston, Massachusetts, was born on June 5th, 1998, to Bishop Robert C. Perry II and Danette Perry. She is a dedicated worship leader and preacher serving faithfully under the leadership of her father, who is the Senior Pastor of Kingdom Builders’ Worship Center. As a pastor’s kid, she has been actively involved in ministry from a young age, but it wasn’t until 2020 that she fully embraced her personal call to ministry.
In addition to leading worship, Taylor serves in youth ministry. Her heart for ministry
extends beyond the stage, as she actively works to foster intergenerational discipleship within the church.
Taylor graduated from Hampton University with a bachelor’s degree in business administration, which has equipped her with the skills to navigate both the spiritual and administrative aspects of ministry. Currently, she is pursuing her master’s in Christian ministries at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, CUME, with a focus on deepening her knowledge of the Word and furthering her leadership in urban ministry.
A gifted musician and songwriter, Taylor Perry recently released her debut single, *Save Me*, available on all media platforms. The song, a reflection of her personal journey of faith and trust in God, has touched many lives.
Passionate about growing in her calling, Taylor is committed to impacting lives through worship, preaching, and sharing the gospel. She is excited to see how God will continue to use her to build His kingdom and bring hope to those in need.
