Befriender Ministry

BeFrienders (volunteer lay ministers) provide pastoral care to people in difficult and transitional situations, such as illness, loneliness, or loss of a loved one. BeFrienders provide a nonjudgmental listening presence to those they visit. They embody the caring presence of God.
