At Fellowship Community, caring for the whole person includes nurturing the spiritual well-being of our residents, families, and team members. Our Pastoral Care department is rooted in the love of Christ and a commitment to sharing the hope and encouragement found in the Gospel. We seek to be Christ-centered in all we do, providing opportunities for spiritual growth, worship, fellowship, and support. Pastoral Care supports the needs of residents from different denominational backgrounds by connecting them with appropriate services and religious organizations as requested.
Nurturing Faith Every Day
Residents are invited to participate in a variety of spiritual programs designed to strengthen faith and foster meaningful connections with others. Opportunities include:
- On-site church services and worship gatherings.
- Bible studies that encourage learning, discussion, and spiritual growth.
- Biblical counseling and support for residents and families facing life's challenges.
- Opportunities for prayer, encouragement, and Christian fellowship.

Compassionate Support for Every Season of Life
Whether celebrating life's joys or navigating difficult circumstances, our pastoral care team is available to provide comfort, guidance, and a listening ear. Through personal visits, prayer, counseling, and spiritual encouragement, we strive to support residents and families with Christ-centered care. In addition, we offer the following services:
- Hospital Visitations: for residents who are admitted to the hospital, pastors will visit them to provide spiritual support and encouragement.
- "Caring Companions": provides a reassuring presence at the bedside for residents at end of life who would otherwise be alone.
- Funeral and Celebration of Life Services: at the request of the resident and/or resident's family, the pastoral staff can provide funeral services in honor of the resident.
- Memorial Services: there are quarterly memorial services to recognize and honor the lives of Fellowship residents that have passed.
"The Gospel is front and center, sharing the good news of Jesus." This mission shapes our approach to care and creates a community where faith is lived, shared, and celebrated each day.
