Congregational Care
Ministry
You are not alone
The Congregational Care Ministry walks alongside our church family through prayer, presence, and compassionate care in times of need and times of joy. We work closely with our pastors to listen, pray, and support you throughout all of life’s seasons.
How we care
Prayer Support
Confidential prayer teams are available to pray for you, your loved ones, and the life of our church- including events and meetings.
Life Events and Milestones
We celebrate and support life’s important moments—from milestones and achievements to seasons of transition.
Personal Care and Connection
We offer hospital and home visits, home communion, prayer shawls, and meaningful connection through notes, calls, texts, and prayer.
Grief Care
Ongoing support for individuals and families following the loss of a loved one, with care and connection throughout the year.
Prayer Support Children and Family Care
Resources and care packages are available for children and families experiencing illness, grief, or loss.
Funeral and Celebration of LIfe
A welcoming and compassionate presence for families and friends during services at ESUMC.
When you – or someone you know is in need of prayer and/or care:
facing an upcoming surgery or procedure
grieving the recent loss of a loved one
feeling isolated and lonely
We also love to celebrate with you in times of joy!
