Pastoral Care
Intercessory Prayer
The Intercessory Prayer Group was formed more than 30 years ago to pray for the needs of all who ask for prayers. The names of those seeking prayers are called to the chairperson of lists, and these are relayed to the persons on the prayer chain. We pray daily, not only for those on the list, but for the well being of St. Stephen’s Parish. Meetings are held each month on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays following Holy Communion and all are welcome.
Contact: Marian Marquardt 837-6693 with questions, contact the office 925-254-3770 to directly add someone on our list.
Helping Hands ~ Lemonades
If you are able to provide food, caregiver relief and/or a ride, please email Sara Nelson (sara@forceflow.com) and you will be added to the Helping Hands ~ Lemonades call list. If you are in need of a helping hand, please contact Sara or Rev. Mary in the church office at 254-3770.
Stephen Ministries
Stephen Ministry helps pastors and congregation leaders equip lay persons to provide one-to-one Christian care to people who are experiencing a crisis or going through a difficult time. We can expand our care giving reach and bring Christ’s love and care to more people in need.
