Care for others is expressed in many ways. Faith’s Expressions of Care ministry focuses on three meaningful acts of compassion: personal visitation, the distribution of Holy Communion to those in special circumstances, and anointing at the last. Through these sacred practices, we extend Christ’s love and presence to those in need.
