John Knox Ministries

Stephen Ministry

This confidential ministry equips laypersons to provide distinctly Christian one-on-one care.  After undergoing an initial 50 hours of training, Stephen Ministers work together with our pastors to extend Christian care to those who are facing a wide variety of situations, including those who are bereaved, divorced or separated, terminally ill, unemployed, hospitalized, home bound, lonely, experiencing spiritual struggles and more.  If you are in need of a Stephen Minister or are interested in learning more about this ministry, please contact one of our pastors.

CARE Groups

The CARE Group ministry is designed to nurture a caring community of faith at John Knox.  Each family or member of John Knox belongs to a CARE group.  This group is led by a Care Companion who provides Compassion, Availability, Response and Encouragement to group members through regular contact and prayer.  If you are interested in becoming a Care Companion, please call the church office at 244-0453.
