CONGREGATIONAL CARE
The Congregational Care Ministries focus on community and care. The support and encouragement found in a committed community sustains every program in Congregational Care, and sets the stage for caring to be the hallmark of every ministry area. The programs represented in Congregational Care are clustered in four ministry councils. Scroll down, or follow these links to learn more.
