Pastoral Care Ministry

 

A family. That's Graceland. And at the heart of every family is love. Our love for the Lord. And for each other. It brings us together. Makes the good times sweeter. And helps us through the tough ones.  For more information on any of these ministries, contact Pastor Jeff Barbour at jbarbour@gracelandbaptist.org.

 

At Graceland, you'll find that being a part of a family is a great feeling. There's the comfort of knowing that you're surrounded by people who love you, people who care for you. And that's what our Pastoral Care ministries are all about. They are designed to minister to your needs at every stage of life. 

 

 

Maybe it's the birth of that new bundle of joy. Sometimes it's a critical illness. Whatever the situation, a visit from someone in the Graceland family who cares for you can bring great comfort when you're in the hospital. We make every effort to find out when our members are hospitalized, but you can help keep us informed by calling the church office at 812-944-6448

  

 

This group of  ladies is led by Sara Altman and distributes prayer blankets to chronically or  terminally ill individuals.  To date there have been 490 blankets distributed through the church and 1325 given through Hospice.  To volunteer you may contact Sara Altman through the church office at 812-944-6448, ext. 107.

 

 

We want those members who are confined to home or in a facility such as a nursing home or assisted living home to feel like part of the Graceland family, too. We maintain regular contact with our homebound members through cards, phone calls, and personal visits. Bible Fellowship classes and homebound ministry volunteers carry out this vital ministry. Call 944-6448, ext. 107 if you are interested in participating as a volunteer in ministering to our homebound members.
