PRAYER

We know prayer is a powerful tool we've been given as God invites us to lift up each other's needs to Him. Each week as staff, we gather to pray over the requests that you have submitted, and our e-prayer team is standing by to lift up urgent needs in real time. Request Prayer >>

ELDER PRAYER FOR HEALING

According to James 5, in our time of need, we ought to call upon the Elders of the church for prayer. Elders are available to pray for you before or after worship services or another time that's convenient for you.

Contact Matt Knapp or Brenda Benny to get started with any of these soul care options:

MEET WITH A PASTOR

If you would like to speak with a Pastor, contact the church office (Monday-Thursday 9am-4pm) at 763-434-5995.

STEPHEN MINISTRY

Stephen is a ministry of one-to-one caregiving. This ministry provides one-to-one prayer support and encouragement during a time of crisis, such as grief, loss, divorce, or hospitalization. Stephen Ministry is gender-specific only ( a man will come alongside another man or a woman alongside a woman).

PROFESSIONAL COUNSELING

We know that there are times when a Christian Counselor would benefit you. We draw upon a range of therapists with different areas of specialty. We see the value of psychology and theology woven together, and we can help you in the referral process.

SIDE BY SIDE: A LAY COUNSELING MINISTRY

We offer Christ-centered lay counseling to any adult seeking support free of charge. A licensed therapist provides ongoing supervision and training to our lay counselors.

FUNERALS

Losing a loved one can be one of the most difficult times and it is our privilege to walk alongside people as they grieve. Our Care Ministries can help you with prayer, funeral arrangements, or other needs you may experience. Please contact Matt Knapp.

PREMARITAL COUNSELING & WEDDINGS

Congratulations! If you are planning on getting married, we rejoice with you as you look forward to this momentous day, and hope this season of preparation is a rich experience. Please contact Matt Knapp for more information on our premarital process.

GRIEF SHARE

If you have experienced loss, Grief Share can provide a small group experience for you to find support and encouragement. Grief Share looks at the different stages of loss, how the soul changes through the death of a loved one, and the practical matters of life without that person.

DIVORCE CARE

Divorce Care is a small group experience for those who are going through or are healing from a divorce. This video-based format features real-life stories of people who have been through a divorce. An experienced leader facilitates discussion questions and support conversations.

VILLAGE 127

A Monthly Gathering for foster, adoptive, and waiting parents

ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS

Only you can decide whether you want to give AA a try. Those who are in AA come because they finally gave up trying to control their drinking. Attendees are quick to find out that many people suffer from the same feelings of guilt, loneliness, and hopelessness. AA meets on Monday evenings at Constance year-round. You can show up anytime.

Whether you feel your relationship is healthy and you are looking to grow together, or whether you are experiencing a season of distance and conflict, the Created for Connection workshop weekend is designed to help you create a deeper connection with your spouse. Led by licensed therapists, the weekend will include a combination of brief presentations, video examples, guided private conversations (with therapist support as needed) and large group processing. This is a small workshop held a few times a year.

If you would like to speak with a Pastor, contact the church office (Monday-Thursday 9am-4pm) at 763-434-5995.
