Property Ministry exists for the care, maintenance, improvement, access, and security of the physical property and buildings belonging to Grace Baptist Church of Richmond Hill.

Maintaining operational effectiveness, and easy access to ministry leaders and their team assures viability of the various ministries. Our ministry is one of foundational support.

Our team is looking for members who possess skills which can be applied toward the care and maintenance of both the building and property.

These would include:

• general care-taking
• general/basic electrical
• plumbing
• understanding of framing/drywall/painting

Interested members should be self starters and able to work independently. Great for those who like to work behind the scenes. This allows for tasks to be completed at the convenience of the team member, as well as alleviating time stressors from other workers

Some duties are scheduled, while others require attention on an as-needed basis.

Scheduled duties include:

• Building Fire Safety Equipment Inspections: Extinguishers, E-Lighting, Smoke Alarms
• Building and Office Furnace Filter replacement: 2 furnaces in Church, 1 furnace in Office
• Baptism Tank Preparation: Operation Procedure is written out and provided

As-Needed Duties include:

• Battery Replacement- touchless faucets, toilets, soap dispenser, Electronic door locks
• Any repairs, adjustments, furniture builds, organizing, cleaning (other than what our cleaning contractor does)
• Setup of signage for special events
• Spring setup of garden hoses, Fall storage of same
• Tree health manager: dead branches, visual inspection and reporting, tree removal

Once a member is committed to this ministry, a “Google Sheets” file will be shared. This chart is a place where tasks/jobs/repairs/etc are listed. Once a task is completed, it is marked as such. Members can select/choose a job that they are comfortable with, or desire to tackle, and coordinate with the ministry leader in order to effect the completion of the task. The ministry leader will ensure that tools, materials, and access are made available. The worker will complete the task and communicate this with the leader so that it can be marked as complete in the chart.

All interested members will meet with the ministry leader for in-depth task description and necessary training prior to self direction. 

Once a member is comfortable tackling the task independently, scheduling will be managed either at their discretion, or in cooperation with Pastors and/or other ministry leaders (I.e. Baptism Tank Preparation is done in accordance with a time-line determined by one of the Pastors).

• Baptism Tank Preparation and reset
