Lauren:
                                 When you’ve been out of work for a while or struggling to
                                  make it on a less-than-    adequate salary, a Christian
 friend might be just what you need to lift your spirits and help you with  
 resources, spiritual and otherwise. A Stephen Minister will walk alongside
 you on this journey to a better life—and pray for you all the way.
  
 Please come and join the conversation with Susanne Hopkins, one of  
 Ascension’s four Stephen Ministry leaders, about how Stephen Ministry
 might  be a blessing to you.

  Stephen Ministers care for people who are:
  • Grieving
  • In a crisis
  • In need of long-term care
  • Dying
  • Hospitalized
  • Divorcing
  • Experiencing losses as they age
  • Going through a crisis of Childbirth
“Stephen Ministers are Friends Indeed to Friends in Need”
