Special Edition: Our Hope For General Conference 2020, Part One

Jesus was a healer. His example calls us to provide care and support for one another through the peaks and valleys of our lives. The Caring Congregation (TCC) offers guidance on the best Christian practices to help people move through life’s challenges. Our method of care is based on a team approach that empowers both pastors and laity (serving as Congregational Care Ministers or CCMs) working together to support the congregation and community.
