A Personal Care Team is more than a meal delivered. A Personal Care Team shows the Care Recipients that their church community cares for them. Comprised by family, friends from church groups and worship, and members who have the gift of mercy and prayer, a unique Personal Care Team assembles for each Care Recipient.

The Pastor for Congregational Care meets with the Personal Care Team and the Care Recipient together The Care Recipient shares their challenge and needs and everyone receives encouragement and prayer together With a clear timeline of care, each person offers tangible support (meals, texts, visits), then the team disbands after the Care Recipient's needs are met (typically 3-4 weeks). You may be asked to be a part of a Personal Care Team if someone you know from church or a Redeemer member who lives near you needs short-term spiritualandemotionalcare.
