Stephen Ministry Training
Are you a person with a kind heart and a keen listening ear? At Christ Church Cathedral we can train you to be a Stephen Minister—to provide confidential, one-on-one support for people who are facing various stresses, such as loneliness, illness, separation or divorce, job loss, retirement, a new arrival or an empty nest, or just heightened anxiety during these trying times. Stephen Ministers model Christ’s love by being present with their care receivers—listening, empathizing, encouraging. Training will begin in early November and continue through April 2023. Classes are interactive and rewarding, imparting skills valuable in all human relationships. Commissioned care providers are then supported through regular, required supervision. A written application and interview are required. For more information, contact the Rev. Tom Kryder-Reid, Canon Pastor.

Diocesan Communications Update
For the past 5 years, Canticle Communications has consulted with the Diocese of Indianapolis for special projects like the website and logo design, as well as for ongoing work that has included diocesan newsletters, social media, communications from Bishop Jennifer, and diocesan convention materials. In response to the evolving needs throughout the diocese and with the opportunity for more collaboration between the diocese and cathedral, the Bishop’s staff will be shifting to bring day-to-day operations to a staff role in the coming weeks, with oversight and strategic direction from Elise Shrock, Director of Communications. Learn more about the search for the Diocesan Communications Coordinator here. Bishop Jennifer is deeply grateful to Rebecca Wilson, Jim Naughton, Kathleen Moore, Sophie Kitch-Peck, and all the members of the team at Canticle Communications, and looks forward to continued work with Canticle on special projects and crisis communications as the needs arise. Through this time of transition, know that our newsletters, website, and regular communications will continue. |
