Why a Lay Ministry?
Stephen Ministry is based on the idea that all Christians are ministers. The responsibility for passing on God’s love is for all Christians, not just a chosen few. God has given us all gifts for ministry and called us to put those gifts to use. Stephen Ministry is a way people with special gifts for caring ministry can use those gifts to
bring Christ’s love to people in need.
A new class will be forming in January.
Prayerfully consider becoming part of our ministry at Second Presbyterian.
