Our Culture of Care

Because of God’s love for us we are called to love others in radical ways. It is our desire that all people of Hopewell extend help, care, compassion, and encouragement both within the walls of the church, in the community, and the world. We seek to create and express this culture of care to everyone.

Stephen Ministers Care

When was the last time someone really listened to you? We’re talking about that undistracted, full-attention kind of listening. That’s one of the ways Stephen Ministers care for others. We need [more] Stephen Ministers to care for those who are making that long journey through the valley of a life crisis. Will you consider serving in this way? A training class is starting in September.  For more information, please  contact Pam Hansen  or Caroline Boyd.

Ever Thought about Becoming a Stephen Minister?

HRC will be training another class of Stephen Ministers in September. Stephen Ministers work alongside our pastors to care, encourage, and provide emotional and spiritual support to people who are going through a difficult time, such as divorce, grief, hospitalization, unemployment, terminal illness, relocation, chronic illness, or loneliness. If you have gifts for caring, encouragement, and listening, please begin to prayerfully consider whether you might want to be a part of this exciting ministry. If you think you might be interested, talk with Pam Hansen or Caroline Boyd
