Chris.
Apostle Paul had become a Servant of the Church. He did not just call himself a "Servant of the Lord" but "Servant of the Church". This is a very practical and proper name for him because we can read so much about his Service for the Lord's Church. May the Lord raise up more Servants of the Church.
