Primary Focus

EuGene Lewis has the privilege of serving as coordinator of Regional Ministries for Washington Conference and works alongside of our African American pastors and churches.

Pastor Lewis says his responsibilities are four-fold:

1) Evangelism

Work closely with African American pastors and congregations in the planning and budgeting of evangelistic activities.

It is in doing Christ’s work that the church has the promise of His presence…The very life of the church depends upon her faithfulness in fulfilling the Lord’s commission.

Ellen White in Desire of Ages, p. 825

2) Collaboration

Serve as a conduit—motivate our African American pastors, laity, churches, and constituency to participate in the overall vision of the conference, so as to creatively and substantively contribute to the overall planning and implementation of comprehensive strategies and programs designed to grow individuals, families, churches, schools and institutions in the Washington Conference.

3) Personnel

Assist administration in the process of locating personnel by maintaining resumes and lists of potential employers, and selection and introduction of new pastoral leadership.

4) Liaison

Serving as a liaison between the conference administration and the African American community. Sometimes prophet, speaking on behalf of the conference-its policies and procedures to the people, and sometimes priest, speaking on behalf of the people—their practical needs and concerns to the conference.
