How
is Clairmont Organized?
(updated -1/23/09
Clerk of Session - Bob
Siegmann
Worship and the Arts
- Music and the Arts Team - Nancy Cullison (09)
- Technical Support Team - Andre Guzman(10)
Purpose: To provide worship experiences for people at all
levels of Christian maturity that glorify God and Equip people as
disciples of Jesus Christ. The Worship Ministry will be intentional
about developing and maintaining worship services directed both
toward members of CPC and toward unchurched people in our community
– services that create an environment in which the body of Christ
worships God profoundly and that accessibly models that worship
for persons who do not yet know what it is to worship God. As Christ’s
body, Clairmont will seek to have everyone who attends be involved
in worshipping God in increasingly deeper ways.
Outreach
- Missions - Darrell Jones (09)
- Missions & Azalea Village - Tom Lockwood (09)
Purpose: To reach out to our community with the Gospel for
Jesus Christ. This ministry serves as a “front door” to the church
going beyond the church and into the community in order to connect
unchurched people with the life of CPC.
Connecting
- Member Involvement Team - Beth Kennon (09)
- Stewardship Team - Bob Siegmann (09)
- Leadership Development - Chuck Powers (10)
Purpose: When a person becomes involved in a ministry, not
only is the ministry built up, but that involvement helps the individual
grow in the love of God’s people and in the service of God’s Kingdom
as a true servant of our Lord: “You shall know them by their fruits”
(Matt 7:16). The Member Involvement Ministry coordinates New Member
classes, and helps, through the New Member Partner program new members
become involved with the congregation and its ministries. We also
help members and teams connect with each other in light of members’
gifts and in response to new ministry opportunities. The purpose
of the Stewardship team is to deepen people’s awareness of God as
the source of every blessing, and to strengthen people’s commitments
to steward our entire lives in ways that glorify God, respect His
gifts, and demonstrate our ultimate trust in Him.
Equipping
- Women's Ministry - Laura Hackemeyer (11)
- Young Adult Ministry - Naomi Nelson (10)
- Children’s Ministry Team - Reid Hartsfield (10)
- Youth Ministry Team - Tricia Sale (10)
- Adult Discipleship Team - Bob Miller (11)
Purpose: The Equipping Ministry’s purpose is to provide
members of all ages with teaching and instruction that not only
helps them to deepen their faith, but also prepares them for loving,
faithful and joyful service in the world. Bible Studies, Wednesday
night programs, Small Groups, Prayer Groups, Youth and Children’s
Ministries, and Adult Sunday School are all tools that this ministry
stewards to help people grow closer to Christ and to be His ambassadors
in the world.
Administration
- Personnel Team - Carson Kennedy (11)

Purpose: “By this everyone will know that you are my disciples,
if you have love for one another” (John 13:35). Clairmont’s Congregational
Care Ministry coordinates several teams that work together to bear
the healing and saving light of Christ to all. By visiting with
the sick and infirm, the grieving and the families of newborns;
following up with members who are relocating, or who have been absent;
coordinating care from Stephen Ministers; supporting congregational
communities of Neighborhood Groups; and praying for members and
their families, this ministry serves Christ by caring for His flock
(John 21:15-17). This ministry also coordinates ongoing deacon education,
and provides seminars to the congregation and the community concerning
care issues.
Fellowship

- Table Fellowship - Sandy Luster (10)
- Table Fellowship - Barbara Dillon (11)

Purpose: Following Scripture’s exhortation to “encourage
one another and build one another up” (1 Thess. 5:11), the Fellowship
Ministry plans and coordinates Fellowship Events (like the Barn
Dance, Talent Show, Church-wide Retreat and Golf Tournaments), resources
Fellowship Groups (like the Singles, Presbyterian Women [PW], and
the Seniors), and stewards the fellowship that Christ blesses in
the breaking of bread by supporting lunches, Wednesday night suppers,
and other meals together (Table Fellowship Team). Our Guest Follow-Up
Team invites Clairmont visitors to become regularly involved in
the congregation’s fellowship.

Purpose: The Hospitality Ministry seeks to extend the open
and loving welcome of Christ to all who visit the Clairmont campus.
As Christ calls the world to come unto Him, we seek to be His arms
of welcome, sharing the warmth of his love through greeters, ushers,
refreshment tables, and the Hospitality Ministry serves Clairmont
by extending this same welcome to members that gather on campus
for worship and other events.
