The Stephen Series provides congregations
with the structure, training, and resources to set up and administer a
complete system for lay caring ministry (called Stephen Ministry) in the
congregation. In Stephen Ministry congregations, lay caregivers (called
Stephen Ministers) provide one-to-one Christian care to the bereaved,
hospitalized, terminally ill, separated, divorced, unemployed, relocated,
and others facing a crisis or life challenge. Stephen Ministry helps pastors
and congregations provide quality caring ministry for as long as people need
it. |
