    STEPHEN MINISTRY

    6/10/2014

     
    Picture
    Stephen Ministers Are There to CareAre you, or someone you know, going through a difficult time—emotionally, spiritually, or relationally?  The Stephen Ministry here at St. Luke is a ministry devoted to helping anyone who is lonely, experiencing a crisis, or simply stressed by everyday life.  No one should ever have to suffer alone. Our Stephen Ministers are trained caregivers, ready to listen, care for and encourage you, pray with and for you, and provide confidential one-to-one Christian care to help you through whatever it is that you are facing.
    ​To find out more, talk with Paul White, Nancy Lendman, Connie White or the Pastor, or
    simply call the church and ask about this ministry!


    This care is entirely confidential—no one knows the identity of a care receiver except for his or her Stephen Minister and the pastor or Stephen Leader who paired the two together. The care receivers featured here stepped forward willingly to share their stories. Click to see their stories 

    ​

    A Stephen Minister Is …
    • A child of God who walks beside a person who is hurting
    • A congregation member with gifts for caregiving, who was carefully selected to serve in this role
    • A lay person who has received 50 hours of training in providing emotional and spiritual care
    • A caring, Christian friend who listens, cares, prays, supports, and encourages
    • Someone who will “be there” for his or her care receiver, meeting faithfully for about an hour each week, for as long as there’s a need.

    What are Little Free Libraries?
    Little Free Libraries are hand-crafted structures filled with constantly changing collections of books donated and shared by people of all ages and backgrounds. Most Little Free Libraries are placed in front yards, parks, gardens and easily accessible locations. The Libraries are built to withstand weather of all kinds and hold 20-100 books. Some Libraries are located in coffee shops, in or near restaurants and community centers.  St Luke is privileged to have two of these "Take a Book, Leave a Book” libraries placed on our grounds.  Spread the word among your neighbors and friends, and spread the joy of reading.  There are books for all ages and intrests...just drive or walk by and pick up (or drop off) a book to enjoy... No charge and no late fees involved!

    Here at St Luke ...

    We seek God. We are a church that seeks to express our love for God in all that we do - with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength (Mark 12:30).
    We serve others. The St. Luke church family has a heart to serve the community, loving each other just as God has loved us (John 13:35). 
    We share our lives together. No one here is perfect - we are all ordinary people who gather together to worship God, grow spiritually, and put our faith into action (James 2:15).
