St. Luke’s is committed to meeting the spiritual, emotional, and physical needs of our congregants when you need your community of faith to surround you. Our Pastors and Care team are available to connect with and pray with you when you need someone to speak to. We are honored to walk alongside you in your journey.
Our St. Luke’s Care Ministries provide love and support during the joys and trials of life through group programs and individual ministries.
A Parish Nurse or Faith Community Nurse (FCN) is a nurse with specialized training which focuses on the intentional care of the spirit as well as the promotion of health and the prevention of illness. A Parish nurse focuses on the “whole” person (body, mind, and spirit) working alongside the pastors and Care team to identify and meet the health needs of the congregation.
What can a Parish Nurse do for YOU? Faith Community Nurses work in several different settings including churches, community outreach centers, hospitals, faith-based schools, and more. As your Parish Nurse, I will be focusing on our St. Luke’s congregation and community. The focus of a Parish Nurse is to provide listening, caring, support and resources to individuals and families on health -related issues, all the while bringing God into whatever crossroads they find themselves in during their daily lives.
To help you better understand, I’ve listed a few different ways a Parish Nurse can serve our congregation. Remember, Parish Nurses don’t take the place of your medical team, but rather help ‘fill the gaps’ in care.
I am so very honored and blessed to serve as your Parish Nurse. I hope this brings a better understanding of the many ways a Parish Nurse can provide loving and spiritual care for you and your families and walk alongside you in your health journey. Let me know how I can help you.
