Stephen Ministry

Could Stephen Ministry Be Right for You or Someone you Love?

You can reach us on our confidential care line at: 919-645-6752 or email: StephenMinistry@hbbc.net

Are you experiencing a life situation that leads you to question whether or not you’ll be okay?
Does the yoke of life seem too difficult for you to carry alone?
Do you question how God is working in your life?

God has called and prepared some people within our midst to serve as Stephen Ministers. They are trained to share loving, confidential care for hurting people at the time they need it. Stephen Ministers seek to extend the comfort of Jesus to people who are hurting and healing.

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I
will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me,
for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for
your souls.” (Matthew 11: 28-30)

Interested in learning more about Stephen Ministry?
Plans for another Stephen Ministry training class are underway. If you would be interested in learning more about Stephen Ministry and how you might become a part  of this caring ministry, please contact Bill Murray at wjm320@gmail.com, or 919-845-2443.

GriefShare

It may be hard for you to feel optimistic about the future right now. If you’ve lost a spouse, child, family member or friend, you’ve probably found there are not many people who understand the deep hurt you feel.

That’s the reason for GriefShare, a special seminar and support group for people grieving the loss of someone close. This group is sponsored by people who understand what you are experiencing and want to offer you comfort and encouragement during this difficult time.
 
During the small group discussion time, you’ll have the opportunity to interact with others who have experienced a recent loss, learn about their experiences and share your own. Please join us for the next GriefShare session. 

The thirteen week series is offered once a year during our Family Night programs on Wednesday evenings. Extended childcare is offered following the Children's Music & Missions programs. Due to the support group format, limited enrollment is necessary. For information or registration, call Christine at 645-6733.

For more informaiton on this support group visit www.griefshare.org

Prayer Ministries

Hayes Barton Baptist Church Prayer Ministries

The Prayer Ministry has been expanded over the past two years to include the following groups with a focus on a strong commitment for prayer. 1 Peter 3:12 teaches us that the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their prayers. 

Confidential Prayer Ministry available!
From time to time, we become aware of prayer concerns that are too personal for publication in the church Prayer Concern list. For those situations, we have formed a small prayer team who meet weekly to pray together for the persons with confidential prayer needs. Prayer request forms and envelopes are available on the counter in the main hallway across from the Fellowship Hall. To submit a concern, simply complete the form and drop it in the envelope dropbox beside the church office window. You may also notify us at 334-6001 or email to
prayer@hbbc.net

Bereavement Prayer Ministry
Fifteen members make up this team, and each member prays every day for one year for a church member’s family that has experienced a death of someone within the family.  Each team member often prays for three to four families at a given time. 

Letters are sent to the grieving families three times a year to let them know that they are being lifted up in prayer. In a year's time, over 14,600 prayers are offered for those suffering the loss of a loved one.  It is a wonderful ministry - it means so much to those who are being prayed for and to those who are praying.  The prayer team members find blessings in their own lives from the commitment to pray daily for others. 

Critical Prayer Ministry
This prayer team responds immediately when someone is experiencing immediate critical medical issues.  The group is notified and they begin praying for the person who is in need of prayer.  

Home Prayer Network Ministry
The prayer group consists mostly of members who are not able to come to the church.  They receive in their mail the church communications, including the Prayer Concerns lists from which lets them know who is in need of prayer.

Prayer Shawl Ministry
Members who participate are interested in knitting shawls for those who are in the midst of difficult medical issues.  The shawls are prayed over and knit together with love and prayer concerns for those in need. 

We invite and urge you to pray about your involvement in the Prayer Ministry of our church.  You can join one of these groups or just continue to pray for those in our church on the Prayer Concern List which is prepared weekly. We desire and encourage new groups to form which we think of as "Face to Face" groups that meet regularly for prayer at a place and time of their choosing.

"Where 2 or 3 are gathered in my name, there I am in the midst of them"
—Matthew 18:20
