Care Ministry

Care for the flock that God has entrusted to you. Watch over it willingly, not grudgingly and not for what you will get out of it,
but because you are eager to serve God. (1 Peter 5:2)

Care-Giving Teams

Staff and volunteers minister to the Bethel family through hospital, home, and care center visitation. We deliver flowers, pray with people, and spend time with those who need love and care. We have the opportunity to be the hands and feet of Jesus as we purposefully and directly love and care for people in very practical ways.

Pastoral Care

Our Pastoral Care Team is happy to pray for you and share biblical wisdom with you. We offer a listening ear and prayer, followed by resources that will educate and provide you with support for special life circumstances.

On-Call Ministry

We provide emergency, 24/7 pastoral care response by the Director of Care Ministry and the Bethel pastors.

Stephen Ministry

Equips lay-people to provide one-to-one Christian care to a same gender individual who is experiencing difficulties in his or her life. Stephen Ministry is a confidential ministry. The identity of those receiving care and everything they discuss with a Stephen Minister remain private.
