A Stephen Minister is a lay person who has had 50 hours of training, so they can walk with people during their struggles. Maybe you have lost someone you love, or your last child has left home to start a life of their own, maybe you are going through a divorce, or lost your job. The list goes on and on, but you don’t have to walk alone. A Stephen Minister will walk with you so your struggles can be shared. When you share your struggles, the struggle is halved.
