Our Mission:

BeFriender Ministry is a national ecumenical ministry providing transformative training and ongoing support for a listening ministry of care. 

*****

When a woman with an aging parent suffering from dementia can share her story with a listening presence; when a patient with a life-threatening illness can talk about his fears to a caring ear; when an abused woman finds comfort in safely telling her story to a nonjudgmental listener – that is the gift of BeFriender Ministry.

 

Foundation Principles

God is present.

Caring not curing.

Nonjudgmental presence.

Active listening.

 

About Us:

“Forget not to show love unto strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares." 

Hebrews 13:2
