Greetings,

We are blessed to have four newly trained Stephen Ministers who will be commissioned this Sunday during our 11 a.m. worship service These individuals have completed months of training and will now begin the supervision process along with our other Stephen Ministers. 

Stephen Ministers provide a listening ear to those who are experiencing a life crisis or challenge. They are members of the congregation who understand the importance of confidentiality as well as spiritual support. 

If you or someone you know might benefit from this unique relationship, please email me at [email protected], or call the church office, extension 136.

God's Peace, 


Janet Stilwell
Pastor of Congregational Care and Missions 
at First Methodist Conroe
