Are you compassionate and empathetic? Do you have a heart for hurting people? If so, we'd love to have you join our Stephen Ministry team! As a Stephen Minister, you will have the opportunity to provide Christ-centered, one-to-one, emotional and spiritual care to people experiencing difficult seasons in life.

A new training cohort for Stephen Ministers is planned for the fall. We will be conducting Stephen Ministry information meetings on Sunday, June 8 at 8:30am and Sunday, June 22 following the service.
