Our congregation’s Stephen Ministry equips lay people to provide one-to-one Christian care to people in our congregation and community who are experiencing difficulties in their lives.

Stephen Ministry is a confidential ministry. The identity of those receiving care and everything they discuss with a Stephen Minister remain private.

A Stephen Minister is…

• A child of God who walks beside someone who is hurting.
• A congregation member who is carefully selected to serve in this role because of his or her caregiving gifts.
• A lay person with 50 hours of training in providing high-quality distinctively Christian care.
• A caring Christen friend who listens, cares, prays, supports and encourages.
• Someone who meets faithfully each week with his or her care receiver as long as there is a need.
