Are you, or is someone you know, going through a crisis?
These crises happen in all our lives, at one time or another. They include
things like depression over the loss of a job, grief at the death of a loved
one, the necessity of hospitalization, the birth of a child. When a crisis
comes, it is helpful to have someone who cares for you. Our congregation
has trained 8 lay people who offer a ministry of Christian caring for
those in need and will have another 3 lay people commissioned as
Stephen Ministers in the very near future. When a crisis happens, think
about making use of their ministry. Please contact one of the
coordinators, Wendy Treble (cell 306-581-5363) or Bob Erwin (cell 306-
533-8514) if you would like to have some time with a Stephen Minister. If
you would rather send a request via e-mail, go to our website
westhillchurch.ca. Brochures are also available at the Information Desk.
For those who are unable to drive to church on a Sunday morning and
wanting to attend our service, we provide a bus service at no charge.
Please contact ‘Where 2 Transportation’ at 306-522-4477
