The CARE Team Ministry

Our mission is to journey with those in need of emotional and spiritual support as they walk the road to wholeness and healing. This is accomplished through personal contact and prayer.

The Care Team Ministry will provide trained caregivers who can listen in a compassionate, non-judgmental way. Caregivers have an accepting heart to others in need. Please remember that in serving the Lord by serving others, you will be truly blessed. Caregivers are not professionals, they are Christians who are seeking to serve the Lord by serving others.

Training sessions are held for new caregivers twice a year. Caregivers then meet once a month every 2nd Monday evenings for support and education opportunities throughout their service in the ministry.

For more information on this ministry, please contact MaryAnne Striepling @ mils10@yahoo.com  or call 847-548-0906.

 

If your gift is that of serving others, serve them well. If you are a teacher, do a good job of teaching. If your gift is to encourage others, do it! If you have money, share it generously. If God has given you leadership ability, take the responsibility seriously. And if you have a gift for showing kindness to others, do it gladly. Don't just pretend that you love others. Really love them. - Romans 12:7-9
