Congregational Care
King of Peace's congregational care team adds to the compassion and vibrancy of our church community. This ministry extends pastoral care to those in need through care cards, home/hospital visits and staffing a 24-hour emergency pager.
Specifically, the team is available for:
• Visitation in hospitals, nursing facilities and homes
• Listening: Providing an open, non judgmental and confidential ear to hear your stories
• Communion and prayer
• Anointing the sick
• Sending care cards to those in need, or to celebrate life occasions
• Friendly phone calls
Confidentiality and discretion are cornerstones of our ministry. It's absolutely essential for building safe, healing and caring relationships. What is said to a care team member is kept in strictest confidence. New healthcare regulations (HIPPA) provide safeguards for this information. Information will only be shared at the request of the care receiver.
