Care & Concern

At First United Methodist Church in the heart of downtown Boerne, we have a heart for caring. We care for our congregation and their families with support during times of illness and loss, and with congratulations during times of joy and new birth. Congregational care plays a vital role in bringing the church community together as the body of Christ.

We have several different ministries that make up congregational care here First Church, Boerne. We have a prayer ministry team that spends time praying for those who are sick and in need. Our ministers visit those members and their families who are in the hospital. Volunteers and staff also call and visit members who are homebound and can no longer attend worship.

Congregational care is a vital ministry to this church community, and it is everyone’s responsibility. If you are interested in becoming a part of this rewarding ministry please download the volunteer opportunities form and return it to the office, or call 830-249-2565. You may serve the congregation by spending time in the prayer room once a month. You may visit with a homebound member, or you could just write notes of encouragement to those that are going through a difficult time. So open up your heart and life, so others know that this congregation really cares.
