STEPHEN MINISTRY: What do Stephen Ministers do? They are members of Bethel who have gone through 50 hours of training to provide confidential one-to-one Christian care to people who are facing a crisis or going through a difficult time. Your Stephen Minister will meet with you once a week for around an hour to listen to you, care for you, pray with you and provide spiritual encouragement. Men are matched with male Stephen Ministers; women are matched with female Stephen Ministers. To find out more about how you or someone you know could be matched, talk with one of our Pastors. Our Stephen Minsters are ready to care for you.
