CONGREGATIONAL CARE
St. Simons Presbyterian seeks to fulfill the call of Christ to love one another as he has loved us. Our pastors make visits to hospitals and nursing homes, and meet with people who find themselves in need of individual pastoral care. We also have members and teams who have received training to help support others in times of crisis or spiritual struggle. Our support for each other also includes times of joy, like a wedding celebration, the birth of a child, or a baptism. Through our network of relationships we call, visit, and write as we seek to show God's love to each other and to the stranger who may come into our fellowship.

ADDITIONAL CARE MINISTRIES
Pastoral Care
Pastors are committed and trained to being with persons in times of challenge. The pastors at SSPC would like to hear from members when life changes occur and to pray, listen, and to help make sense of these changes and find a way forward. Members are welcome to let us know of both joys and concerns. This is part of knitting ourselves together as the household of God and offering Christian care.
