Stephen Ministry is a one-to-one ministry by trained, caring lay ministers. Through one-to-one caring and confidential relationships, those who are hurting receive the love and care they need to support them through particularly challenging times.
A Stephen Minister serves those who are:
- Facing hospitalization, disability or the unknown
- Bereaved, lonely or depressed
- Experiencing a personal, family or job crisis
- Terminally ill
- In need of a listening friend
A Stephen Minister is not:
- A counselor or a therapist
- A problem-solver
- A casual visitor
The Stephen Ministry invites change in human hearts. This ministry is a demonstration of how God comes to us through other people, and how God comes to other people through us.
How do I request a Stephen Minister ?
Please contact a member of the pastoral staff or a Stephen Leader through the church. You may discuss with them the need for a Stephen Minister for yourself or for someone you know. A Stephen Minister will only be assigned with the permission of the person in need, and under conditions of strictest confidence.
Contact the church office (254-772-4225) for further information.
Trinity lives to Reach UP, Reach OUT and Reach IN
with the love and life of God in Jesus Christ,all for a FULLER HEAVEN.
