Stephen Ministries at Willow Street UCC

At Willow Street UCC, we believe that no one should face life’s challenges alone. That’s why we’re launching Stephen Ministries, a Christ-centered caring ministry that equips trained laypeople, called Stephen Ministers, to walk alongside those who are going through difficult times.

Right now, we are recruiting and training Stephen Ministers, compassionate individuals who are ready to offer one-on-one Christian care to those in need.

In 2026, we will begin opening our ministry to Stephen Care Receivers, members of our congregation and community who are facing life’s challenges such as grief, illness, job loss, or other personal crises.

If you feel called to serve as a Stephen Minister, or if you’d like to learn more about becoming a Care Receiver when services begin, we invite you to connect with us.

Together, we can extend Christ’s love and care to those who need it most.
