Stephen Ministry

When should you call and make arrangements to talk to a Stephen Minister?

When you have decided that whatever is bothering you can't just wait.
When you hear from others that you are just not happy and you need to talk.
When is starts to effect how you are feeling, acting, and living.
When your prayers just are happening anymore.
When God gently nudges you!

What Is a Stephen Minister?

Stephen Ministers are faithful Christians sent by God to help you through a life crisis.
They are filled with God's love and knowledge, which you will find quite priceless.
They'll walk closely with you and be your trusted friend.
They will keep everything in confidence, forever.
They will be there until you're whole again.

What would send a person to find a Stephen Minister?
Maybe you've lost a loved one or job on which you depend.
It could be a serious illness, and you feel you need a friend.
So you don't have to go it alone when life's challenges you must bear.
Just let them know of your need, and a Stephen Minister will be there.
(Poem by Betty L. Delfosse)
