| Stephen Ministries |
|
Central has an active Stephen Ministry. Beginning this ministry has required hours of study and prayer from the participants. They are dedicated to, and enthusiastic supporters of, this ministry. They are eager to serve because their study and ministry is incomplete without the service component. It is what they have spent 26 weeks preparing to do.
So, what is it that they desire to do? They are prepared “to walk alongside” anyone who is hurting, someone who needs a listener, a lonely person. They will be the ears and voice of Christ for that person. They will listen, encourage, and provide Christian support. Each encounter will be bathed in prayer.
Who might need a Stephen Minister? Any one of us at any given time could have the need for the sort of support that the Stephen Minister can provide.Persons who have suffered losses- deaths,unemployment, empty nests, separation, divorce, health issues- may desire a Stephen Minister. Other situations might include a new in town; someone with a new job; someone in long term care; caregivers; or someone facing retirement. So, you see, a Stephen Minister can serve in a variety of circumstances.
The Stephen Ministry covets your prayers and support. Continue to pray for the ministry. Support it by suggesting Stephen Ministry to one who could be served in this very special way. All of your Stephen Ministers are very grateful for having this opportunity to serve Christ and His children. They consider this an honor and a privilege and look forward to seeing where God will lead. - Nell Shrum, Stephen Ministry Leader
