Testimonials

“I loved my visits with my Stephen Minister. It was comforting to know they were there to listen without judgement. They weren’t “preachy” but exuded a genuine care and kindness that provided a safe place to land amongst all the other chaos of my life at the time.” —  a St. Luke’s  care receiver

“When Pastor Monte asked me if I would like a Stephen Minister, I was a bit hesitant to share my personal, spiritual and health issues with a stranger. Boy, was I wrong! My visits with my Stephen Minister have been so helpful and uplifting that I’ve been able to cope with recent serious health problems. In short, I believe that joining Stephen Ministry has positively changed my life.” — a St. Luke’s care receiver
