One way God fulfills his promise of his comforting presence is by providing Stephen Ministers to walk along side those going through challenges such as job loss, illness, divorce, grief or other difficulty. Stephen Ministers (paired men to men or women to women) provide a caring, supportive, non-judgmental, confidential relationship that enables care receivers to share their burdens. Stephen Ministry brings the light of Christ into the darkness of people’s lives.
One of the most important tenets of this program is upholding and honoring confidentiality.
