Pastoral Care

Caring For Each Other

A Close Knit Community in the Heart of Dallas

We are committed to providing care to our members throughout life’s journey from the birth of children into church families to companioning members through death and supporting their loved ones. Wherever you are in your life and spiritual journey, we are here to help you to discover and make meaning of life events and support you through milestones, celebrations, transitions, and challenges.
