Pastoral Care Team
The Pastoral Care Team provides care and spiritual nurture to those serving in pastoral roles within the Presbytery. The Team is comprised of a network of care partners located in each of the Presbytery Neighborhoods, so that pastors in need of care will be contacted by neighboring colleagues. This vital ministry serves as one opportunity for At-Large and Retired minister members to offer care as friends in ministry.
Members of this team are appointed by the Presbytery Planning Commission to serve for undefined periods of time as the Spirit leads them, but members are encouraged to pause from service for respite every two years.
