Stephen Ministry

What Is a Stephen Minister?

Stephen Ministers are lay congregation members trained to provide one-to-one care to those experiencing a difficult time in life, such as grief, divorce, job loss, chronic or terminal illness, or relocation.


Stephen Ministers come from all walks of life, but they all share a passion for bringing Christ’s love and care to people during a time of need.


Since 1975, more than 600,000 people from more than 13,000 congregations and other organizations have been trained as Stephen Ministers.
