Congregational Care

People Matter

Our dedicated Congregational Care pastors, staff and volunteers work to meet the spiritual, emotional, physical, and relational needs of our Mt. Horeb community. We provide support, care and prayer for the needs of families and individuals going through various stages of life. There are several ways to have congregational care come alongside you or your loved one - from hospital and homebound visits to care and support group.

Stephen Ministry

Stephen Ministry equips its members to provide confidential, one-to-one Christian care to individuals in our congregation and community experiencing difficulties in their lives. Stephen Ministers are members of the congregation with the gift of caregiving and are carefully selected to walk beside hurting individuals. If you would like to be a Stephen Minister or are going through some issue in life and need a Stephen Minister, please contact Emma Murphy.
