Question i (2) - Faithful Deacon

About the writer

Ralph Hawkins serves as pastor of Northminster Presbyterian Church in Macon, Georgia. Prior to this call, he served as the executive presbyter and stated clerk for the Presbytery of Shenango, which consists of forty-five congregations in western Pennsylvania. He served congregations in Georgia, Virginia, and Pennsylvania before arriving in Macon. His focus in pastoral ministry is “equipping the saints for the work of ministry,” including developing ruling elders and deacons for their leadership, nurturing cross-cultural mission partnerships, and mobilizing Presbyterians for local ministry in the neighborhoods around congregations. Ralph is a father to his teenage daughter, Ella, and in his spare time is an avid railroad enthusiast (hawkinsrails.net), an amateur photographer, a tent camper and canoer, and a computer geek squad for family and friends.
