What is a Stephen Minister?
-
Stephen Ministers are the after people - they walk one on one with someone who has experienced a life disruptor - after the funeral, after the diagnosis, after the job loss, after the divorce, or after a tragedy. Those who are serving as Stephen Ministers are trained to provide one-to-one confidential Christian care to those individuals who may be experiencing a life crisis for up to a year following the crisis.
We have over 2200 families and one priest. This ministry is an extension of Fr. Albert's pastoral care.

Stephen Ministry Hospitality
If hospitality is your spiritual gift, please consider signing up for meal support or to be the hospitality minister. It would be awesome to have the same hospitality minister each time and a great way for you to learn more about Stephen Ministry!
