How We Care for One Another
In addition to our Safe Church Policy, there are several ways in which we can care for one another. The Lay Caregivers, our Prayer Chain, Meals to Heal are available to all...
PRAYER CHAIN Members of the Prayer Chain include your concerns in their intercessory prayers. Prayer request cards are available in the entry and pew racks; the cards may be placed in offering plate or mailed to the office. These requests are confidential and are not named in the Prayer Concerns during worship. If you want a Prayer Concern added to the Pastoral Prayer, please contact Pastor Andy or Pastor Nancy directly.
LAY CAREGIVERS Pastor Jeff visits elderly and hospitalized parishioners regularly and are assisted by Lay Caregivers. These volunteers receive training and ongoing guidance from the pastor. We also have a list of people who will provide rides to medical appointments and send in meals in times of illness or bereavement.
All those representing Spring Glen Church while doing such things as home visitations and/or providing rides are required to adhere to Safe Church Policy.
MEALS TO HEAL A small group of members meet once a month in the church kitchen to prepare food that they, the pastor, or Lay Caregivers take to someone who needs a little help with meals or maybe just a plate of freshly-baked cookies!
FUNERAL/MEMORIAL SERVICE PLANNING FORMS AVAILABLE FROM PASTORS The Spring Glen Church Funeral/Memorial Service form gives you an opportunity to list favorite scripture, hymns, etc. to serve as a guide to your loved ones so that they can follow your wishes for funeral arrangements. For information on the Spring Glen Church Memorial Garden contact Rhonda Voos.
