What is Stephen Ministry?
Our Stephen Ministry Care
When you or someone you know is going through a difficult time, Father Tom and our Deacons are always on the front lines of care, especially during times of crisis. But for ongoing confidential one-on-one care, maybe a trained Stephen Minister can help.
