Counseling Ministries
Nativity Church offers various ministries and programs to care for our members, as well as Christian counseling for those in need. Our ministry is available to those who are ill, caring for a sick family member, transitioning home after a hospital stay, grieving because of the death of a loved one, or experiencing other difficulties. Nativity prayer teams are available to pray for church members and others, for any reason you might seek prayer.
