CONGREGATIONAL CARE NEEDS YOUR ASSISTANCE
We visit UMC members in Nursing Homes and other Care Facilities. We call on Home Bound who can no longer attend church. If you know of members who can no longer attend church, please either call the church office or put the information on your Attendance Card.
Thank you for helping us with this important Ministry to bring the Spirit of the Church to those who can no longer attend.
- Hospital Visitation/Respite Care/Visiting Homebound/Transportation are part of Congregational Care. Our information comes from the patient themselves, a family member, friend or the United Methodist list at the front desk in the hospital. The pastors visit the South Bay Hospital in Sun City Center every day. Also, the pastors visit other hospitals in the Tampa Bay Area as needed. Members of the Congregational Care Team also visit hospitals, nursing homes, respite care facilities, and homebound.
- Pastoral Visits are part of Congregational Care. If a member or a friend of the church wants a pastoral visit, call the office and a pastor will visit and have prayer with you.
- Birthday and Anniversary Cards. Another area of Congregational Care ministry is the sending of cards at anniversaries and birthdays to members of the church.
