STEPHEN MINISTRY SPEAKER

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 care-giving gifts.

• A layperson with 50 hours of training in providing high-quality, distinctively Christian care.

• A caring Christian friend who listens, cares, prays, supports and encourages.

• Someone who meets faithfully each with with his or her care receiver for as long as there’s a need.

  If you could use a Stephen Minister please contact a Stephen Leader:  
  Phil Haag, Kevin Ireland, Shirley Jo Perry, and Ed Perry
