Friendly Visitors

An offshoot of our Stephen Ministry, RPC’s Friendly Visitors are available to make visits to those in our church and community who would appreciate a friendly presence on a regular basis. 

RPC’s Friendly Visitors program seeks to match volunteers with those who would appreciate a caring relationship. Prior caregiving experience is helpful, but more importantly, a desire to bring a kind presence to a fellow parishioner or community member. The program works to match the needs of each individual and volunteer for regular visits to share stories, books, crafts, a game of cards, or just spend time together.

If you would like to learn more about being an RPC Friendly Visitor, please contact Sarah Snell.

If you or a loved one would benefit from being matched with a Friendly Visitor, please contact Mary Versfelt.

 

 

 

The Friendly Visitors program seeks to match volunteers with those who would appreciate a caring, supportive relationship.  Prior care-giving experience is helpful, but more importantly, a desire to bring a kind presence to a fellow parishioner or community member. The program works to match the needs of each individual and volunteer for regular visits.   Priority is given to the RPC community, however we also extend outreach to local senior care facilities. 

If you would like a visit or would like to learn more about being a Friendly Visitor, please contact Becky Ruegger.
