Stephen Ministers

Stephen Ministers provide confidential, one-on-one care to individuals in our congregation and community who are experiencing
difficulties in their lives. Stephen Ministers are ready to provide the emotional and spiritual care we often need when faced with a difficult or challenging time such as loss of a loved one, hospitalization, divorce or separation, loneliness, parenting struggles, caregiving challenges, unemployment or work-related challenges, aging, relocation, chronic illness, life transitions, birth, adoption, miscarriage, or infertility, recovery after illness or surgery and many other life circumstances. Stephen Ministers are lay persons with gifts for caregiving who have completed specialized training in providing emotional and spiritual care.

For more information, Contact Rev. Sallie Suby Long 303-791-0659 x132 or email Sallie.

Lonely? Sad?
Discouraged?

Going through a tough time – emotionally or spiritually? Struggling with a crisis in life? Or simply feeling down?

Consider letting a Stephen Minister help. A Stephen Minister is a member of our congregation who is trained to listen, care, encourage, pray, and walk alongside you during difficult times. It's confidential, free, and very helpful.

To learn more, talk with a pastor or Stephen Leader.

Bear one another's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.
