Advent Cares!

Advent’s Care Ministry continues to grow, involve new volunteers, and act upon opportunities to serve members of our Advent Family. We are grateful for the support of individuals who have offerred time and some financial support to activities.

Care Ministry includes activities in four areas. Communication across the four areas helps us coordinate activities and ensure appropriate responses to needs. Please contact Pastor, your Elder or Carolyn Jones to tell us how we can help you or another member of the Advent Family.

Prayer Ministry:  The Prayer Team shares prayer requests with the Advent Family, unless the request is for confidentiality. Prayer request forms and a special collection box are in the narthex.

Card Ministry:  Volunteers in the Card Ministry send cards and hand written notes to encourage, support, and celebrate life events. You may place contributions of stamps, greeting cards or blank note cards for this ministry in the Care Ministry box in the fellowship hall.

Meals and Food Ministry: Volunteers help by preparing and delivering meals when special needs arise. On occasion this ministry may ask for contributions of non-perishable groceries to donate for a specific need.

Caring Visits and Contacts Ministry:  Visits and phone calls to listen, pray and offer support bring comfort and cheer to those who live alone or are recovering from illness. We are gathering information and guidelines to help visitors.
