Stephen Ministry

There are moments when being heard is a gift.

You may not need someone to solve everything. You may simply need a trusted person who will listen carefully, pray faithfully, and remain present week after week.

Stephen Ministers are trained lay caregivers who provide confidential, one-to-one Christian care to people experiencing a crisis, loss, transition, or other difficult season. 

They extend the care of the church through a consistent relationship grounded in compassion and the hope of Christ.

We Would Be Honored to Walk With You

What Is Stephen Ministry?

When You're Hurting, You Don't Have to Walk Alone

Some seasons arrive without warning. Grief, illness, loneliness, relationship struggles, or simply feeling overwhelmed can make the road ahead feel impossibly heavy. Stephen Ministry offers a caring Christian companion for the journey.
