Finding Comfort in Christ’s Care
We all face moments of loneliness, grief, and hardship. At Haven Church, our Stephen Ministry is here to offer compassionate, one-to-one care, providing comfort and hope through Christ’s love. As Paul reminds us in 2 Corinthians 1:4-6, God’s care reaches us in times of trouble, and our Stephen Ministers are here to extend that care.

What is Stephen Ministry?
Our mission is to equip congregation members to deliver Christian care to those who are hurting. Guided by God, Stephen Ministers provide emotional and spiritual support, fostering hope and deepening faith.
