Personal Support: Confidential listening, prayer, and guidance when you’re facing challenges or simply need someone to talk to.
Hospital & Home Visits: Compassionate presence for those who are unwell, recovering, or unable to attend church in person.
Prayer Ministry: Dedicated times of prayer for individuals, families, and specific needs.
Practical Help: Assistance and connection to resources within the church or wider community when extra help is needed.

Our Approach

Pastoral care is more than a program — it’s the heart of our church community.
We believe in:

Listening with compassion.
Praying with faith.
Serving with love.
Walking together in hope.

Through genuine relationships and the presence of Christ, we seek to bring peace, encouragement, and restoration to those in need.

Why It Matters

We believe caring for one another is a reflection of Jesus’ love in action.
Through pastoral care, we live out our calling to be a faithful, compassionate community — one that stands together in times of need and celebrates together in times of joy.

At Halswell Community Church, you are never alone.
We’re here to listen, to pray, and to walk with you — every step of the way.
