Congregational Care Team
About us…
The purpose of the Congregational Care Team is to communicate love to the nursing home resident, shut-ins, hospital patients and those recovering at home and also to individuals with “special” needs. It is a way to present a faithful Christian witness and to allow God’s love to flow through us to them in both good and difficult times. God gives us talents and gifts, we are using these gifts for God – we trust Him to help us use these gift and talents for His glory.
Why does this team exist?
This team exists so we can share God’s love with the congregation, to show that we are all a part of the Family of God – and that each member is important in the faith community.
