Stephen Ministry
Stephen Ministry
Stephen Ministers engage in twice-monthly supervision to ensure that they are providing the best-quality Christian care; the names of care receivers and specific details are never discussed. The caregiving is provided to everybody irrespective of their creed (or none) with some notable exceptions (i.e., Minors, couples, families, groups; and those with serious mental illness, suicidal or violent behaviors, substance abuse, severally manipulative persons, etc.)
Stephen Ministers are an extension of the pastoral care of the Church, not a casual visitor or a professional counselor. They are trained Christian caregivers. Their role is to listen and care—not counsel or advise. At St John XXIII today we have 16 Stephen Ministers trained to assist our community.
If you require further information please visit the Stephen Ministry website or for assistance, email us on stephen.leaders@stephenministry.ch.
