Stephen Ministry

Stephen Ministry
Featured on PBS

The PBS "Religion and Ethics" news show recently aired an eight-minute feature on Stephen Ministry that vividly describes the life-changing ministry happening in thousands of congregations.

View the Stephen Ministry feature on the PBS Web site, where you'll also find several bonus features--including a nine-minute interview with Stephen Ministries' founder and executive director, Kenneth C. Haugk.

Stephen Ministry is grounded in Jesus' command to love one another. Through one to one caring relationships, those who are hurting receive the love and care they need to support them. Stephen Ministers are the caregivers and God is the curegiver.

Everyone goes through difficult times. Stephen Ministers provide someone to care, to listen, to share God's love and help you get through confusion, stress or loneliness all with the complete knowledge of confidentiality.
