Our committees are made of a wide diversity of our members whose Christian leadership, talents and spiritual gifts help to provide the wisdom, guidance and policy that steers Asbury. We hope you will consider serving on one of these committees (terms are usually three years in length). If you feel yourself being called to serve, please contact Laurie Wallace Theisen, our Director of Lay Ministries, at ltheisen@asburylv.org or 610-398-2577.
