CARE & SUPPORT
Serving with love & prayer
About Us
The Care & Support Ministry exists to uplift, encourage, and walk alongside our church family through every season of life. Through compassionate visitation, prayer, counsel, and fellowship, Riceville’s Deacons and the Ministers & Deacons’ Wives share the love of Christ by caring for spiritual, emotional, and practical needs.
Together, they serve as a support system for members, fostering unity, strength, and a Christ-centered community within the church.
