What is Stephen Ministry?

Stephen Ministry equips lay people to provide confidential, one-to-one Christian care to individuals in our congregation and community who are experiencing difficulties in their lives.

Stephen Ministers care for people facing tough times. We all experience challenges in life-times when we could benefit from the support of a caring Christian friend. Stephen Ministers are ready to provide the emotional and spiritual care we need when faced with a crisis or difficulty such as:

Loss of a loved one

Hospitalization

Divorce or separation

Loneliness or discouragement

Spiritual crisis

Unemployment or a job crisis

A terminal illness

Incarceration

Aging

Birth, adoption, miscarriage, or infertility

A chronic illness

Relocation

Recovery after an accident or disaster

And many more...

Stephen Ministry is a confidential ministry. The identity of those receiving care and what takes place in each caring relationship remains private.
