Care Shepherds

Psalm 34:18 "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted

and saves those who are crushed in spirit."

Evergreen's Care Shepherds are a group of trained individuals for the shut-ins

and those in pain or dealing with family stresses. 

Please contact the church office at 334.792-7898 if you know of someone

who needs a smiling face or words of encouragement. 
If the Holy Spirit has been knocking on your door to be the sunshine in someone's life,

please open it and let God in to help you help others!

Koinonia


                             

Feed our souls.

Feed our families.

Feed our community.

 

"Koinonia" is the Christian fellowship, or body of believers.  It is the intimate spiritual communion and participative sharing in a common religious commitment and spiritual community.  After Pentecost, Peter brought the gospel to these bewildered onlookers who witnessed the disciples’ ability to speak in many different languages.  3,000 witnesses became new believers and were baptized that day. After, these newly baptized believers “devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship (koinonia), to the breaking of bread and to prayer” (Acts 2:42).

 

Evergreen's Koinonia Ministry Team nurtures the congregation with hospital visitation, home bound visitation, and making contact with new attendees.  Koinonia also organizes the pictorial directory for Evergreen every 2-3 years.

 

A vital part of Koinonia at Evergreen is "feeding our souls and feeding our families" every 1st Sunday of the Month, preparing the communion meal as well as organizing a church-wide potluck lunch for that day.  In addition, we "feed our community" on Communion Sunday by bringing donation bags of food for our Food Pantry resources.   This team also prepares the Wednesday Family Suppers during the school calendar year.

 

Koinonia feeds our souls, our families, and our community.

Outreach Team

 

 

 

Members of Evergreen Presbyterian Church, through its Outreach Team, faithfully and generously respond to

God’s call to “Feed my Sheep.” 

The Outreach Ministry  provides food for the hungry, funds for those in need, assistance for those who live in substandard houses, and prayers and presence to those

whom the culture ignores.

These things we do because we believe Christ modeled these efforts in His life and ministry. 

 

The Evergreen Outreach Ministry includes distribution of bags of non-perishable food on Wednesday mornings through the

Feed My Sheep Food Pantry, 

financial assistance each Wednesday morning

to individuals struggling to meet basic obligations,

and purchasing and preparing meals the third week of each month for the homeless and hungry who come to

Mama Tina’s Mission.

 

Additionally, Evergreen’s compassionate generosity includes  Habitat ministry, the Food Bank’s brown bag program,

the Feed My Sheep Golf Tournament, the Girard Teacher Appreciation Luncheon and Adopt-a-School efforts,

the visitors and new members fellowship; the Touchstone children bringing their donations to the food pantry, and mission trips for adults and young people.
