Care Ministry
At Kitty Hawk United Methodist Church, we are “family,” and God is the center.
​
The Care Ministry Teams represent our “family” as Care Givers for Christ. Each week we call, visit, provide a meal, or send a card to those in need; we provide comfort as we reflect the love of Christ we all share.
-
The Care Ministry is made up of 13 teams, each serving one week each quarter. The teams consist of one leader/coordinator, and 5 to 7 members.
-
We have implemented a Funeral Team that specifically deals with bereavement and the organization/handling of funeral receptions at the church. This team consists of 12 members, which includes the Care Ministry Coordinator and a Funeral Team Leader.
-
We are averaging roughly 2 meals per week and have provided for approximately 57 individuals/families. Some of these individuals have received regularly scheduled meals while they undergo treatments, or as they recover from a surgery.
-
We try to visit our shut-ins once every month, and there are several visits made to members presently living in a local nursing facility.
-
We are averaging about 20-30 cards per month being sent out to those that are ill, hospitalized, or have lost a loved one. We continue to keep in touch with those that have lost their spouse and are living alone, because the adjustment for them continues for a very long time.
