The Stephen Ministry is a nationwide program in which congregation members go through intensive training to be there for others in their times of need.

Stephen Ministry lay caregivers (Stephen Ministers) provide one-to-one Christian care to the bereaved, hospitalized, terminally ill, separated, divorced, unemployed, relocated, and others facing a crisis or life challenge. Stephen Ministry helps pastors and congregations provide quality caring ministry for as long as people need it.

If you would like to be a Stephen Minster or know of someone who would benefit from a Stephen Minister please contact our pastor.
