Brotherhood Ministry
As men in the Lord, God has called you to be the head of your family and to render unlimited support to your family and church. As part of the brotherhood, you will receive practical instructions on how, as men, to lead your family and support your church the way God instructed us to do. We also come together to fellowship and participate in sports activities such as basketball, bowling, skating and other various activities. When you join the church, you automatically become a part of the brotherhood, so come out and take an active part in what God is doing with the men of God at Mt. Transfiguration Baptist Church.
Sisterhood Ministry
The sisterhood is an exciting fellowship where we learn how to become virtuous women of God. Through our fellowship with one another, we experience a closeness between sisters in Christ, and share our testimonies of victory that God has given. We visit the sick, bereaved, and down hearted. We have an exciting nursing home ministry and participate in various activities such as bowling, skating, etc.
Music Ministry
The music ministry at Mount Transfiguration Baptist Church consists of the Youth Choir, the Voices of Joy, the Senior Choir and the Male Chorus. As you have probably witnessed in one of our services, our choirs are very inspirational. We add spiritual spice to the service. We don't just sing, we minister the Word of God through songs under the anointing of the Holy Spirit. If you have a talent to sing and enjoy singing, come out and be a part of this ministry.
Musicians Ministry
As musicians, we help make and keep the tone of the service through the ministry of music. We believe that as we play under the anointing, that every wicked and demonic spirit is loosed from the lives of God's people. In the same fashion as when David played and drove the evil spirit from Saul. This is a ministry that requires a lot of dedication and commitment to the work of the Lord. So, if God has given you a talent with an instrument don't just sit on it, come out and glorify God with it as part of the Musician Ministry.
Sound and Tape Ministry

We also monitor the sound during the service through advanced technical equipment. If you have a talent or gift in this area come and be a part of the technical ministry.
Usher Ministry
Ushers play one of the most important parts of the service since we are one of the first people that a person sees. We set the tone of the service by being courteous, helpful, warm greeters. This is a ministry of service and order. We help keep a flow of order in the services as we serve through the ministry of ushering. So if God has laid this ministry on your heart, come out and be a part of this ministry that serves.

The ministry of the pastoral care includes pulpit preparation, providing refreshments, maintaining the pastor's office, robes etc.

We teach them the word of God and show them how to apply it to their daily lives. We help build strong Christian values so they may be people of integrity. We also encourage them to utilize their talents, gifts and abilities to the glory of God. In the youth ministry we help them to realize that they are the church of today, children are being healed, saved, and filled with the Holy Ghost.

There are times when everyone needs a word of encouragement, or just a call to say hello. As a member of the Encouragement Ministry that's just what we do.
