Care Ministry

A team of Care Deacons oversee the many facets of the Care Ministry, including visits to hospitals and homes, personal calls and cards, memorial service and grief after-care, support groups for job seekers or Alzheimer care providers, AA and addiction recovery support groups and referral, and prayer ministries. We are always seeking to improve our care of members' needs. During this season, as you reflect on the quality of your life and the health of your relationships, please consider your need for our ministry of care. We are shepherded by Pastor Arvin Engleson and supported by Susan Bollman. We hope you will feel free to contact Susan at 867-1000, ext. 239, with any concerns you or your family might have. If you are drawn to the work we do, we will find a place for your unique contribution.
