In the Pastoral Care Ministry, Epiphany offers the opportunity to care for others in need, and to take our commitment to community seriously.

Opportunities to share in God’s gifts include:

Healing Ministry Team  This team provides prayers and laying on of hands for healing during Sunday services.  Visit the side chapel for special prayers for yourself or someone you love.  Contact:  Emil Torrez

Prayer Chain  This group prays daily for the needs and concerns of the community and provides an underpinning of prayer for our parish life. Contact:  Nancy Grandfield

Lay Eucharistic Minister II   These individuals are specially trained and licensed by the diocese.  Lay Eucharist ministers bring communion to homebound or hospitalized parishioners.    If you feel called to this particular ministry, please contact Rev. Julie Wakelee Lynch or Rev. Hailey McKeefry Delmas.

Emergency Meals   This ministry provides meals for parish members who are experiencing any form of physical, emotional or spiritual difficulty.  Volunteers agree to be called upon to periodically provide a meal to a fellow parishioner, or to bring cookies for a memorial reception.  Contact:  Sue Sunde

Sunshine Cards/Phone Calls  Greetings are sent to parish members and other friends of the community who are facing any crisis or need.
Sunshine Card Contact:  Gretchen Ross

Nursing Home Outreach  This group leads a prayer and singing service weekly at the Bay View Villa Convalescent Home in San Carlos.  Communion is also provided on a monthly basis.  Contact:  Chris Perris

Elder Brunch  Seniors gather monthly for the Wednesday morning worship service.  They share the Eucharist, a delicious brunch, and friendship.

All of us are called to serve those in need; and there are a huge number of opportunities here at Epiphany.  Presently, there are over 60 dedicated people who provide these wonderful services.
