Become a Stephen Minister

Stephen Ministers are trained members of our church who provide one-to-one care for people walking through grief, illness, divorce, loneliness, major life changes, and other difficult seasons.

We’re looking for people with a heart to serve—people willing to listen, care, pray, encourage, and faithfully be present for someone else. You don’t need to be a counselor or have all the answers. You simply need a willingness to serve.
