Stephen Ministry Information Night

Bringing Stephen Ministry to all of our Parishes!

Our six-parish family invites you to an Information Night to learn more about Stephen Ministry—a Christ-centered ministry that equips lay people to provide one-to-one care to those who are hurting. The evening will include a detailed explanation of the ministry and time to answer any questions you may have. You can also learn more about Stephen Ministry by visiting StephenMinistries.org.

This event is open to all parishioners from our six-parish family. To RSVP, please call St. Paul Parish at (937) 836-7535 by September 15th, or contact one of our Stephen Leaders directly:

Barb Franz — (937) 776-7375

Diane Huelsman — (937) 416-8870

Steve Lewis — (937) 654-5740

Stephen Ministry is a Christ-centered ministry where laypeople receive extensive training to walk with those going through life’s most difficult seasons—loss of a loved one, loneliness, depression, divorce, health challenges, and more. While Stephen Ministers are not professional counselors, they are compassionate listeners who provide confidential, one-on-one care grounded in faith.

This expansion will ensure that more individuals and families have access to a caring companion when they need it most.
