Bringing Christ’s healing love to people who are hurting
Stephen Ministers are lay congregation members trained to provide one-to-one care to those experiencing a difficult time in life, such as grief, divorce, separation, unemployment, chronic or terminal illness, relocation, or spiritual crisis. Stephen Minister training is a Christ-centered experience that equips participants with essential caring and relating skills. Trainees learn how to listen to, care for, and walk with those going through difficult times in life. Stephen Ministers are trained by their congregation’s Stephen Leaders using resources from Stephen Ministries-St. Louis. The training we provide, which takes place at Nativity, not only teaches trainees to provide high-quality care for people who are hurting, but equips you with relational skills you can apply to all aspects of your life, and deepens your faith as the Holy Spirit fashions you into a Christ-centered caregiver.
Stephen Ministers come from all walks of life, but they all share a passion for bringing Christ’s love and care to people during a time of need. If you have gifts for caring, encouraging, and listening, and have a desire to use these gift to serve others while experiencing profound spiritual growth, call or email about becoming a part of this exciting ministry.
We need more Stephen Ministers!
