Stephen Ministry
Compassionate care and encouragement in times of need
What is Stephen Ministry?
Stephen Ministers are trained lay people who provide non-judgmental, compassionate support and care through one-to-one relationships with people who are going through challenging times and need someone to listen, to care, to encourage and to pray.
The challenging times may be the result of grieving, unemployment or a job crisis, family issues, divorce or separation, recovery after an accident or disaster, feeling alone, facing chronic or terminal illness or other personal challenges.

Re:generation
Re:generation is a Christ-centered, disciple-making ministry in men-only and women-only closed groups. Focused on God, this 12-step model leads to personal restoration and activation in the call of discipleship. By working through biblical steps within an authentic community, people have found freedom from all sorts of personal struggles such as anxiety, substance abuse, codependency, pornography, anger, grief, obsessive thoughts and more.
To refer friends, family members, co-workers for Groundwork or if you have questions, please contact the Regeneration Team . Help introduce someone new to our community by attending with the person you invited a few times to help them connect to these groups. Confidentiality is of high priority.
