The Stephen Series provides congregations with the structure, training, and resources to set up and administer a complete system for lay caring ministry (called Stephen Ministry) in the congregation. In Stephen Ministry congregations, lay caregivers (called Stephen Ministers) provide one-to-one Christian care to the bereaved, hospitalized, terminally ill, separated, divorced, unemployed, relocated, and others facing a crisis or life challenge. Stephen Ministry helps pastors and congregations provide quality caring ministry for as long as people need it. |

There are thousands of ways to be church in the world, and UMs do not want
to miss any of them in an innovative Web site inviting a new generation into
a life of faith and service. The UMC on April 20 launched
http://www.tenthousanddoors.org. The site is part of the Rethink Church campaign using nontraditional methods to reach young adults and others in relevant ways. There are more ways to enter church and begin a spiritual journey than just coming into the front door of a building. “Faith itself is a bridge by which we see God and the work of God present in our world,” says the Rev. Larry Hollon, General Secretary of United Methodist Communications (UMCOM). “God is not contained in the walls of our sacred buildings. God is in the streets, at the well, in the least expected places.” |
