receive & give care with the genesis community
Practical Care
This team provides practical forms of care for those who are experiencing significant life events such as a new baby, the loss of a loved one, illness or hospitalization, the loss of a job, or any other event that might welcome extra care. Care from this team includes: meal delivery, drivers for errands or appointments, handy jobs/yard work, and cleaning/housework.
Pastoral Care
We all experience challenges and could use a caring companion to journey alongside them who will listen, show empathy, and provide a safe place to be honest about the tough issues in our lives. At Genesis, a team of pastoral care members provide a confidential, nonjudgmental, listening presence to anyone experiencing grief, loss, transition, or other concerns. Team members are trained in active listening, and will meet one-on-one with anyone requesting care for concerns such as illness, loss of a loved one, job loss/career change, parenting challenges, relationship changes, new baby, etc.*
An additional resource list of therapists and spiritual directors is maintained by the Lead Pastor and shared with those who request it.
Financial Care
Our Benevolence Fund is available to those who need additional financial support.
