The church is directed to protect and provide appropriate care for widows.

1 Timothy 5:3-16

           

The Widows Connection is administered by the Pastoral Care Ministry over widow co-leaders. It has been established to meet the identified needs in three categories:

 

            1) Spiritual

                   Understanding and living with grief

                   Basic faith in God, believing God still has a purpose and plan

                   Participation in other church group activities and Bible study

 

            2) Social

                   Coping with being alone

                   Developing new friendships

                   Maintaining relationships with family, old friends and couples

                   Setting appropriate boundaries

 

            3)  Practical

                   Financial guidance/estate planning/budgeting

                   Home/Auto Care

                   Housing direction: remain or relocate

 

​

Widows Connection is also supported from a skilled, talented and trustworthy volunteer group within the church. This includes handyman repairs and assistance when a second set of ears needed for bids plus professional advice.
