Informally in all of our small groups (from faith formation to supper club) our people are taking care of one another; bringing meals to new parents or calling to be sure everthing is alright when you notice someone hasn’t been around in awhile.Contact yourself - whenever you notice you haven’t seen someone in awhile, just pickup the phone or send a message to let them know they are missed!

Dreaming into the future...
Pastoral Care Core Team meets monthly to be sure that we are addressing our immediate pastoral care needs and moving forward with our vestry’s direction that we expand lay pastoral care at St. B. This visioning and oversight team has a dream that one day every one of our brothers and sisters at St. B will see themselves as lay pastoral care ministers – intentionally looking for ways to care for one another and feeling comfortable asking for care when they need it.
