St. Jerome Catholic Church recently became involved in Stephen Ministry.  This one-to-one lay caregiving ministry is named for St. Stephen, one of the first seven laypeople called by the church to assist the apostles in caring for others.  (You can read Stephen's story in Acts 6 and 7.)  Stephen Ministry is a unique ministry to serve others, caring for them in Jesus' name, and doing th work that God has called and gifted his people to do.  In the next few months, our Stephen Leader Team will begin training some membres of our parish to serve as Stephen Ministers.  To learn more about Stephen Ministry, speak to Fr. Darrell, Sister Martha, Lacy Riddle or Hank Cecil.
