The healing ministry of Jesus offers a vision where care is at the heart of the church. Learn how your church can cultivate a culture of care in which trained laity and the pastor(s) link arms to extend care not only to your congregation but also into the surrounding community. Leaders of The Caring Congregation offer a pathway to revitalize any size church through thriving care ministry. Does your church fully engage volunteers in living out their calling to care for others? Do you utilize a team approach to care ministry? Is your church prepared to care for people in crisis? This session will show how you can answer “yes” to all these questions and become an effective caring church.
