GRACE CARES

Grace Cares is the heart of congregational care at Grace UMC. We are a team of volunteers dedicated to nurturing the spiritual, emotional, and physical well-being of our church family.  Whether you are celebrating a milestone or facing a hardship, Grace Cares is here to provide support, prayer, and comfort.

What We Do

Grace Cares is here to offer a wide range of services that reflect our belief in compassionate care for all members of our congregation.

  • Prayer Support: Our team is dedicated to praying for the needs of our church family. If you or someone you love is in need of prayer, we invite you to reach out to us.
  • Visitation Ministry: Whether you're homebound, in the hospital, or in a care facility, Grace Cares provides in-person visits, offering encouragement, prayer, and communion when appropriate.
  • Meal Ministry: During times of illness, grief, or significant life transitions, we offer meals to support families in need.
  • Grief Support: We provide a safe space for those experiencing loss through support groups, one-on-one conversations, and grief ministry resources.
  • Care Packages and Acts of Kindness: Periodically, we assemble care packages filled with thoughtful items to lift the spirits of members in need of encouragement.
  • Crisis Support: In times of crisis or emergency, Grace Cares steps in with immediate support, offering resources and a shoulder to lean on.


How You Can Get Involved:

At Grace Cares, we believe that each member has a unique gift to offer. Whether you have a heart for prayer, enjoy baking, or feel called to visit others, there is a place for you on the Grace Cares team. Here are some ways you can help:

  • Volunteer to be a prayer partner or join our visitation team.
  • Assist with meal preparation or delivering meals to families in need.
  • Help assemble and distribute care packages.
