| St. Paul's U.C.C. Care Core |
Mission Statement The
Care Core is principally, but not limited to, a healing and care, lay
ministry; an outreach to the members of St. Paul's and to the
surrounding community. |
Vision Statement The
Care Core is meant to augment existing professional care, not to
replace it. The trend in health care has been to minimize the use of
care facilities to reduce costs. This has produced opportunities for
Churches and other people interested organizations to provide care
during times of rehabilitation and/or confinement at home. These
services may be a simple as fellowship through general visitation, or a
complex as the Parish Nurse's visit to help organize medication
schedules and other skilled services. The services could be confined to
training the family in caring for a disabled family member, or could be
supplying vital informational brochures, or relaying the need for a
Pastoral visit. The vision of the Core is to provide those services
which are needed by out congregation, those services which our members
have skills and talents to provide, and those services which are
consistent with the concept of lay ministry. |
Accountability The
Care Core is a ministry of St. Paul's U.C.C., and as such, is directly
accountable to the Spiritual council and the Senior Minister of the
Church. |
Core Staff The
Care Core is in need of both trained professionals and caring lay
people. If you have a burning love for people, then the Care Core needs
you. If you have questions, contact any of the pastors. |

Healing Service Services are held on the Second Sunday of each month (except
December). The service starts at 06:00 PM at the Church. |
