Stephen Ministry

Sheila Van Dyke 215-8738

     Stephen Ministry is a God-centered one-on-one ministry for persons in crisis. Our pastor identifies a person in need who expresses an interest in having a Stephen Minster. The minister is assigned to work with that person in strict confidence. When the relationship is concluded (usually after six months) the Stephen Minister is available for another assignment. Stephen Ministers are care givers; God is the cure giver.
