Welcome -- sometimes it helps to talk with someone who isn't family, someone who isn't necessarily a close friend, pastor, teacher, or counselor.  It's for those times and for those individuals who are hurting that Shepherd of the Hills offers Stephen Ministry, a lay ministry of encouragement and support. 

"CARE NOTES"

 

 

It’s hard to ask for help…


We’re brought up to be strong, self-sufficient, independent people. We tend to think that if we ask for help, it is a sign of weakness. So we try to keep our struggles hidden, stuffed deep inside. However, that’s not God’s plan. Galatians 6:2 says “Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.” God wants us to care for others--and allow others to care for us in our time of need.  To find out how  Stephen Ministry can care for you or someone you know, contact Pastor Vera or Gene Gunderson at 651-631-0219. 

If you need a Stephen Minister, or know someone who is in need, or would like to learn more about becoming a Stephen Minister, contact the church office: (651) 483-5419.
