The ability to listen is the primary qualification for becoming a Stephen Minister. Training helps Stephen Ministers enhance their ability to listen to, care for, pray with and encourage others. These are skills that Stephen Ministers and all of us can use throughout our lives, but especially in the Stephen Ministry program. If you have an interest in developing these skills and putting them to use, consider training as a Stephen Minister! About once each year, Overbrook’s Stephen Leaders offer training for people who would consider serving as a Stephen Ministers.
