Care & Prayer
Applewood has many outlets for prayer and support, and we hope to equip
and encourage the body of Christ through many of life's storms.
Stephen Ministry
Stephen Ministry trains & equips lay people from Applewood’s congregation to provide confidential, one-to-one Christian care to individuals in the church and community who are experiencing difficulties in their lives. Stephen Ministers meet weekly with their assigned care receiver, listen to them and pray for them. They encourage them by providing emotional and spiritual care while faced with a crisis or difficulty such as:
- Loneliness or discouragement
- Spiritual Crisis
- Unemployment or a job crisis
- Relocation
- Birth, adoption, miscarriage, or infertility
- Loss of a loved one
- Marriage difficulties, divorce or separation
- Loss of independence
- Hospitalization, chronic illness, cancer
