IMMACULATE CONCEPTION • ST. JOHN • ST. JOSEPH • ST. LAWRENCE
As Jesus sent out His disciples two by two to minister to His people, so we strive to imitate Him as we care for one another.
Holy Face of Jesus Parish is fortunate to have Stephen Ministry available to provide one-to-one Christian care to hurting people in our congregations. The name Stephen comes from St. Stephen, who was the first layperson commissioned by the Apostles to provide caring ministry to those in need (Acts 6).
Stephen Ministry multiplies the number of caregivers by equipping laypeople to provide high-quality Christian care. By meeting many of the needs for care, Stephen Ministry will give our priests and deacons more time to focus on other areas of ministry. Hurting people receive quality Christian care, complete confidentiality, and deepen their relationship with Jesus. Our parish becomes a warmer, more loving community as more people are equipped to care and more lives are touched by Christ’s love. “Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep” (Romans 12:15).
