Why do we have a CCM team?

 A congregational care ministry is important because it provides a vital support system within a church community, offering spiritual, emotional, and physical care to members during life's various challenges, fostering a sense of belonging and connection by actively reaching out to individuals in need, and ultimately strengthening the bonds within the congregation through compassionate outreach and service to one another; essentially embodying the Christian principle of caring for each other as a community of faith. 


Key aspects of CCM:

  • Meeting diverse needs:
    It addresses a wide range of needs, including illness, grief, loneliness, major life transitions, and everyday struggles, providing support through visits, prayer, and practical assistance. 

  • Building community:
    By actively engaging members in caring for one another, it fosters a sense of belonging and strengthens the church community. 

  • Spiritual nourishment:
    It offers opportunities for spiritual guidance and reflection, helping individuals connect their faith to their daily lives. 

  • Empowering members:
    By providing training and opportunities to serve, it empowers individuals to use their gifts to care for others within the congregation. 

  • Reflecting Christ's love:
    Congregational care is seen as a practical expression of Christian love, demonstrating compassion and support in line with Jesus' teachings.
