The Congregational Care Committee has created a new Care Network Committee to reach out to our church community in times of need. This committee will coordinate services to our church community using resources currently available by church committees and other resources.
The Care Network vision is to be the starting place when a church staff, committee or church member identifies a need within our congregation. The expectation of this committee is to evaluate the needs by performing a home visit or telephone call.
At this time the Care Network Committee has identified the following activities than can be offered to the Southport Presbyterian Church family:
• Visiting
• Sitting
• Driving
• Meals
• Errands
• Light housekeeping
• Light yard work
• Light home repairs (changing light bulbs, replacing filters, faucet leaks, etc.)
We are soliciting members as well, who are willing to assist in these duties when needed. If you are interested in helping us, please call the church office, Gail Hedgecock, Jason Nettles or Gail Gray. These committees see this as an opportunity to reach more members in need without duplicating services or overwhelming them. We will offer support throughout their time of need.
