On Saturday, February 3, Church of the Transfiguration is scheduled to host a Stephen Ministry Introductory Workshop from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., February 3 at the church, 14115 Hillcrest Road in Dallas.

Stephen Ministers are laypeople trained to provide one-to-one care to people experiencing a difficult time in life such as grief, divorce, job loss, chronic or terminal illness, relocation or separation due to military deployment. 

Congregations from various denominations will be in attendance. Registration begins at 8 a.m. This half-day, three-session workshop is designed to help congregations cast a vision for strengthening their caring ministry through equipping laypeople as caregivers. During this event, participants will also develop caregiving skills they can use right away. The cost of this workshop is $15 per person or $50 for a group of four or more from the same congregation. For more information or to register for this half-day Stephen Ministry Introductory Workshop, call Stephen Ministries at (314) 428-2600 or visit www.stephenministry.org/workshop.
