Lay Shepherds are committed individuals in our Houghton Wesleyan Church congregation who offer and coordinate care-giving for those who have special needs within our congregation and neighborhoods. Lay Shepherds work closely with the Pastoral staff and provide support to families in times of crisis. Lay Shepherds coordinate occasional neighborhood get-togethers. Each Lay Shepherding group hosts one church-wide fellowship event each year, such as an ice cream social. If you have a need, please feel free to contact the pastoral staff or the lay shepherd coordinator, Denise Campbell, for your geographic neighborhood.
