There are times when every one of us experiences difficulties — a serious illness or disability, a divorce, a job loss, the death of a loved one, or a time of discouragement or loneliness. God never intended for us to go through these difficult times alone. That is why God has brought us together as a congregation and why we have a Stephen Ministry.
Stephen Ministers are lay members of our congregation who have received fifty hours of caregiving training to minister to those within our congregation or in our community who might be going through a difficult time in their lives. A Stephen Minister is an intentional friend who will meet with you—privately and confidentially—on a weekly basis to listen, care, encourage, support, and remind you of Christ’s presence in your life.
If you are interested in serving as a Stephen Minister or want to learn more about Stephen Ministry for yourself or someone else you know, contact one of our pastors or Stephen Leaders.
