Ministry of Hospitality

Almost everyone arrives at church bearing the weight of whatever burdens life has placed on them, loneliness, stress, illness, grief, a physical or mental disability. Parents of young children may arrive after a hectic struggle to get everyone dressed and ready for church. YOU can provide the warm welcome that reflects the love of God that can help everyone enter more easily and more fully into the celebration of the liturgy. For more information about the Ministry of Hospitality, contact Linda Bell at 972-596-5505 Ext. 4245 or lbell@eseton.org

Meals and Rides

“I was in need and you helped me” Can you occasionally provide a meal for someone recovering from surgery, an illness, etc. or provide a ride to the doctor, physical therapy, etc.? Consider becoming part of the Meals & Rides Ministry. For more information, contact Linda Bell at 972-596-5505 Ext. 4245, Email lbell@eseton.org
