We are people with the joys and concerns of every stage of life. We are all seekers, yearning for that connection to God that makes our lives complete. And we help one another along the way, in a caring community of all ages. Support comes naturally, because that’s simply what we do to show God’s love.
Our Caring Ministries
This is an overview of the many ways our church offers support.
Stephen Ministrythat equips lay members to provide distinctly Christian care to those experiencing all kinds of difficulties in life—both in our congregation and our community. Grounded in Jesus’ command to love one another, it is based on the belief that caring for each other is an intended way of life for followers of Jesus Christ.
