Christian Outreach
Stephen Ministry multiplies our Christian caregiving and outreach…
Our Stephen Ministers work together with our pastor(s) to reach more people with Christian care than pastors can reach by themselves.
People who receive care from a Stephen Minister….
- receive quality Christian care,
- deepen their relationship with their Lord,
- grow in their desire to participate in Christian community,
- come to value ministry from another lay person while continuing contact with the pastor.
Stephen Ministry enhances our outreach by…
- creating a “caring ministry explosion” where many, instead of a few, are offering God’s love and care in intentional, systematic ways.
- enabling our entire congregation to grow as a warm, loving, nurturing community where people are cherished and cared for in Jesus Christ.
- identifying our congregation to our community as a place where people’s needs are taken seriously.
“Encourage one another and build one another up.” I Thessalonians 5:11
