Parkside's Stephen Ministry trains  and organizes lay people to provide one-to-one Christian care to hurting people in and around our church and community.  Our lay caregivers (Stephen Ministers) provide one-to-one Christian care to the bereaved, hospitalized, terminally ill, separated, divorced, unemployed, relocated, and others facing a crisis or life challenge.

Parkside's Stephen Ministry helps Parkside provide quality caring ministry for as long as people need it. Parkside Stephen Ministry Team provides Biblical equipping that is a life-transforming process. In  ChristCare Group, members follow an 8-step cycle of hearing, discussing, reflecting upon, and living the Scriptures, not only when they are together as a group, but between group meetings.
