We all walk through challenging seasons in our lives and The Grove's Care Ministry wants to provide support, love and encouragement to you. We are here to be a resource for you, so please don’t hesitate to let us know of a concern, hospitalization, death or birth. The Grove Church family can come around you in your time of need with helpful resources and trained volunteers.
"Carry each other's burdens and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ" (Galatians 6:2).

CARE CONNECTION
Experiencing a situation or season where you would benefit from the helping hands of our care ministry team? Some ways we may assist are with meals, visits, and household or home repair help.
Join the Care Connection Team, where you will be emailed a request that you will have the option to respond or not, depending on your availability. It's that simple. Some care needs are providing a ride to an appointment, or a helping hand around the house, etc.
VISITATION CARE
We offer prayer, spiritual support and encouragement to those who are hospitalized, home bound, or recovering at home.
CARE MEALS
During a time of need, meals may be scheduled. Freezer meals are also available and may be donated at any time. Contact Becky Swenson with any questions or requests.
