Christian & Interfaith Caregiver Resources

We are eager to hear of other Christian caregiver resources. Please post them in the comments section below & we will add them to our page.

Stephen Ministries
They offer courses & ministry systems to fit the needs of every congregation & adult education ministry. Lay caregivers (called Stephen Ministers) provide one-to-one Christian care to the bereaved, hospitalized, terminally ill, separated, divorced, unemployed, relocated, & others facing a crisis or life challenge. Stephen Ministry helps pastors enhance caring ministry by ensuring that quality follow-up care is available for as long as it is needed.

Illness-Disability-Healthcare-Caregiver Ministry Network
Join this social networking group developed by Rest Ministries to get to know others who have the same passions for caregiver ministry.

Equipping to Encourage
Dedicated to helping people provide emotional & spiritual encouragement to patients & their caregivers, especially those facing cancer. Resources for
starting or leading a Christian-based cancer support group; becoming a Christian patient advocate; & incorporating faith & medicine as a healthcare professional.

Hometouch Ministry
A ministry for the homebound. Each week, a church can send homebound members a personal package from their church. It will contain two pages printed in large type for easy reading, reminding them of how much they are remembered & loved.

Bright Light Ministry
Though this ministry is not specifically for caregivers, the passion behind caregiving for a loved one is what kicked off this amazing ministry by two sisters in their twenties who witnessed the love between their gr&parents, & how Alzheimer’s Disease never diminished this love. Stacie Stoelting speaks on the subject of caregiving frequently & has a book “Still Holding H&s” about her gr&parent’s story.
