Stephen Ministers
Understanding that God transforms lives through grace-filled relationships, Stephen Ministers at Naperville Presbyterian Church are volunteers who have been called, gifted, screened, educated and supervised to offer confidential, one-on-one relational support and prayer that provide a visible representation of God's love to those in time of need or distress. Stephen Ministers believe that while they provide loving care through their ministry of presence, loving care is only provided by God.
New training classes for new Stephen Ministers will begin in
January and end May 5, 2012. For additional information or to be
