We are a Stephen Series Church, Stephen Ministry equips lay persons to provide distinctively Christian one-to-one care to those who are experiencing all kinds of life needs and circumstances. Stephen Ministers

Are committed Christian People who express God's care through their lives to others.
Are commissioned as Stephen Ministers after completing their initial training.
Visit another person regularly and dependably and offer Christian support and care.
Are committed to preserving the confidential nature of the caring relationship.
Receive continuing education and skill building throughout their years of service.

You can support our Stephen Ministry by praying for our Stephen Leaders and Ministers as they provide Christian care to others, telling Stephen Leaders about those who might benifit from the care of a Stephen Ministry and receiving Stephen Leaders when you are in need of supportive Christian care. Currently we have four commissioned Stephen Ministers.
