Central Care Team
Our purpose:
- to assist our pastors in providing care for our church family
Our Terms of Reference:
- Ensure regular lay pastoral support to those who are shut in at home or in care facilities and for those who are hospitalized.
- Arrange for both practical and spiritual help for those in crisis.
Care Team volunteers are the front-line givers of practical help and care at Central.
We work in teams to:
- offer rides,
- provide meals,
- visit shut ins on a regular and ongoing basis,
- assist with health care navigation,
- send encouraging cards,
- research and connect people to community services and
- help with home maintenance (i.e. cleaning and small home repairs).
New volunteers to the Care Team are so very welcome.
Volunteering on the Care Team does not require a big time commitment. As a volunteer you be offered the opportunity to respond to requests that fit within your availability and gifting.
If you would like to volunteer, or if you need help in some way, write to CareTeam@centralbaptistchurch.ca
DivorceCare
Most people will tell you that separation and divorce are the most painful and stressful experiences they’ve ever faced. It’s a confusing time when you feel isolated and have lots of questions about issues you’ve never faced before. DivorceCare groups meet weekly to help you face these challenges and move toward rebuilding your life. DivorceCare is a friendly, caring group of people who will walk alongside you.
Each DivorceCare session has two distinct elements: a video seminar and group discussion based on the video.
The next session of DivorceCare starts February 11, 2025 @ 6pm
