MOORESVILLE — Two members of St. Therese Church in Mooresville are among 20 pastors and ministry leaders from around the United States who recently completed a five-week leaders training course to begin a Stephen Ministry at the parish.

Following their training, Rosemary Hyman and Mollie Anderson have now begun the process of interviewing potential Stephen Ministers. The 50-hour training for Stephen Ministers will begin in January 2021.

Stephen Ministers are lay parishioners trained to provide one-to-one care to those experiencing a difficult time in life, such as grief, divorce, job loss, chronic or terminal illness, or relocation. The training they receive equips them to provide high-quality Christian care to people who are hurting.

For more information about the parish’s Stephen Ministry, go online to www.sainttherese.net/stephen-ministry.
