welcome to military ministries
At Scotsdale, we have a great love and appreciation for all our military
service members and their families. That is why we are dedicated to
supporting our military and families at home and overseas. We provide
support and services to all active U.S. Military Personnel and their
families and to all of our Veterans. Please feel free to join us on
this website, Facebook, and in our church services and activities.
Watchcare ministry program
At Scotsdale, we have a WatchCare ministry program that allows
believers from other congregations to connect with Scotsdale without
requiring full membership. WatchCare
programs allow individuals to identify with a church - participating in worship,
discipleship, fellowship, evangelism, and service without transferring
membership from their home church. WatchCare membership is designed to provide temporary, conditional, or
unofficial association with a local church. If an individual receives WatchCare membership in a church, he/she would be allowed to be in a
worship team, perhaps, or teach a Sunday school class. The individual’s “official” membership would
remain with his/her church back home but, in the meantime, the person could fill
a valued position in his/her interim church. The benefit of a WatchCare ministry is that it
allows Christians who are away from their home church to have a “home away from
home” among fellow believers. WatchCare
ministries that provide connections, welcome visitors, and unify the Body of
Christ are biblical.
“Behold,
how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity!” - Psalm 133:1
