“Love one another with mutual affection; anticipate one another in showing honor. Do not grow slack in zeal; be fervent in spirit and serve the Lord. Rejoice in hope, endure in affliction, persevere in prayer. Contribute to the needs of the holy ones, exercise hospitality.” Romans 12:10-13
The pastoral care and outreach of God’s people is an integral part of the life and ministry of Nativity of Our Lord. We desire to provide pastoral support and resources that meet the needs of community members and call forward those with the gifts and talents to serve.
Pastoral care includes guidance and assistance with life's transitions and crises through individual and support groups and other resources; visits to those who are home bound or in care facilities; as well as prayer and moral support on behalf of the parish community
