Stephen Ministry
The Stephen Ministry is a Christian caregiving program that equips and empowers laypeople to provide emotional and spiritual support to individuals going through difficult times. Trained Stephen Ministers offer one-on-one, confidential care to those facing challenges such as grief, illness, divorce, job loss, or other life struggles. Their role is to listen, encourage, and walk alongside care receivers, providing comfort and hope while respecting boundaries. The ministry helps extend the caring reach of a congregation, ensuring that no one has to go through hardship alone.
