Pastoral Care Commission
Keeping in Touch...
One of the important ministries of our Mediator community is keeping in touch with each other between our formal worship services. There are many ways that this happens.
The past few years the Pastoral Care Commission has done a variety of things of which you might not be aware. Every two weeks a short meditation called Home Devotions is sent to those who cannot join us for worship. These meditations are based on the scripture lessons for Sunday and include a short prayer. This is one way they can be part of our community and share a small part of our worship experience. If you or someone you know might be interested in receiving these short devotions please let the church office know. We would be happy to add you or them to the list.
The Pastoral Care Commission also oversees the taking of communion to our parishioners that are unable to attend church either through sickness or infirmity. We assist Maria by visiting the people in the hospital when she is unable to get there. Members of the parish are scheduled on a weekly basis throughout the year to assist Maria particularly when Maria is on vacation or sabbatical by visiting those in the hospital and keeping in touch with people with special needs.
Anyone interested in this kind of ministry should contact the Rector or the church office (610-434-0155).
