The Hospital Visitation team members are lay people who are specially trained to visit those who are sick or recovering, whether in the hospital or at home. They provide encouragement, a listening ear, and prayer, and can anoint the sick person with oil if desired. They also connect sick people with other deacon services that might be needed, such as meals or transportation. The schedule for hospital visitors is shown at right. If you are ill and would like a visit, you are welcome to call the Hospital Visitor for the week, or contact the church office at 837-5525.
