Pastoral Counseling Appointments
The Grace Church Ministry Staff considers it a privilege to provide pastoral counseling and to assess care needs as requested by the Grace family. Please contact the Ministry Staff person with whom you would like to consult, or you may contact the Counseling and Care office at 952-224-3023. If assistance is needed beyond the scope of pastoral counseling, referrals are provided to professional Christian counselors. Other community and church-based resources may be available if Grace does not have a resource to help meet a particular need.
Professional Counseling ReferralsA professional counseling referrals list is available by clicking here, at the Information Centers, or from the Counseling and Care office. For individuals from the Grace Church family with no available financial resources or medical insurance, a professional counseling scholarship may be applied for through the Grace Church Benevolent Fund. Please contact the Operations office at 952-224-3088 for more information or to request a benevolent fund application.
Minister on CallOur Ministers on Call are available 24 hours a day for crisis needs and for those needing spiritual assistance. Hospital visits, anointing with oil, prayer and reading God's Word all are ministries available through our Ministers on Call. For assistance, please call the church office at 952-926-1884. In case of an emergency and it is after normal business hours, leave a message on the emergency pager and you will be contacted.
Anointing for HealingFor those afflicted with sickness, a prayer ministry of anointing with oil is available (consistent with the teaching of James 5) by coming forward during the invitation at the conclusion of either Sunday morning worship service. Anointing by Pastoral Staff and Elders is also available by appointment by contacting the Pastoral Care office at 952-224-3051.
