Caring Ministry

A place to care, and be cared for.
So deeply do we care for you that we are determined to share with you not only the gospel of God but also our own selves, because you have become very dear to us.
1 Thessalonians 2:8

Pastoral Care

Our pastoral care staff offers one-on-one and communal care through calls and visits; rituals such as weddings, funerals/memorial services, baptisms, services for wholeness and healing; and education through classes and support groups.

Congregational Care

At Knox church, caring for one another is a spiritual practice, a participation in our calling as followers of Christ in the ministry of healing and wholeness, and an expression of the life and love of God. We want all in our community to know they are seen, loved, and valued.
We offer a variety of ways to feel cared for or to offer care.
