5 Page 5 January 15, 2017 STEPHEN MINISTRY Stephen Ministry Provides Help to Men as Well as Women Stephen Ministry has over 40 trained ministers to be there for men & women in need of someone to talk to. Going into the new year, there are mes where added burdens are placed on many of us; some mes things get so tough that it seems hopeless. Unfortunately men are less likely to seek help, we would urge you to do so. Stephen Ministry offers a person to meet with you to share your burdens. The purpose is for men as well as women to unload their problems to a caring minister. He or she will pray with you & offer the message of God s hope. A number of years ago, I met with a young man who had a problem with anger. Over the course of mee ngs that lasted over a year, his anger was replaced by hope & love. The Stephen Minister is not a problem solver. Our purpose is to bring God s love to the person in need & to assure him or her they are not alone. God has not forgo en them. Stephen Ministers are here to provide you a person to share your worries with, to provide you with support & to remind you of God s love. If you feel that you could use someone to talk to, give Hazel a call at or Paul at , or you can call the Parish Office.
