Stephen Ministry is a one-to-one caring ministry in which trained lay members—called Stephen Ministers—provide high-quality, confidential, Christ-centered care to people who are hurting or struggling through a difficult time in life—such as those who are experiencing grief, divorce, job loss, chronic or terminal illness, or some other life crisis. The relationship between a care receiver and a Stephen Minister is confidential. Men are matched with men; women with women.  A Stephen Minister usually provides care to one person at a time, meeting with that person once a week for about an hour.  When a care receiver’s needs exceed what a Stephen Minister can provide, the Stephen Ministry team makes a referral to an appropriate mental health professional or other community resource.   Suncreek will be training a new class of Stephen Minister caregivers beginning September 19.  Volunteers must commit to over 50 hours of mandatory training, which will be held weekly.  If you are interested in learning more about this ministry or  would like to sign up for training and service, please emial .
