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 for further information.
Trinity lives to Reach UP, Reach OUT and Reach IN
