Care Team

To bring the peace of Christ to those
needing emotional or spiritual care.
 

The St. Gabriel Care Team is a group of lay people trained to provide Christian care to parishioners and neighbors in our community; offering one-on-one (and sometimes two-to-one), Christ-centered emotional and spiritual care to people struggling through a difficult time, such as job loss, illness, elderly, heartache, and other life challenges. We are a caring Christian friend who listens, cares, prays, supports, and encourages.  Various depths of training are available based on the servant's availability and depth of involvement.  Care team members may be cross-trained to also serve as a Ministry of Holy Communion.  This team is the "front-line" of care, and after walking with an individual, helps navigate people to other resources, prayer, and support groups.  Team members choose their own schedules based on availability and presented needs.
