Care & Support
The Congregational Care Ministry Team strives to provide opportunities for spiritual and community growth, with an emphasis on caring for people during emotionally trying times. This ministry team provides ongoing visits to the home-bound, respite care transportation ministry, and Stephen Ministers for confidential, one-on-one Christian care.
Support groups, special worship services, and workshops are offered for the benefit of our congregation as well as members of the community.
