After being matched with a person experiencing a difficult time, the Stephen Minister meets with that person on a weekly basis to listen, care, encourage and provide emotional and spiritual support. As this is a supervised ministry, twice monthly reporting sessions support quality Christian caregiving. Stephen Ministry is a confidential ministry, what a care receiver tells a Stephen Minister remains confidential even in supervision. The names of care receivers and specific details are never discussed. The caring relationship lasts as long as the need for care exists.
