Contact: The Rev. Jon Hall

This new ministry is forming under the direction of Fr. Jon to assist with the pastoral needs of our church community.

That urgent need may be sudden illness, emergency surgery, an accident, an emotional crisis or any life-threatening situation. All prayer requests to the Prayer Chain are confidential. We welcome new members.
