The Assistance Ministry is comprised of the Assistance Ministry Program and The Ride to Church Program.
The mission of the Assistance Ministry Program is to provide voluntary services to members of St. Thomas who encounter difficulties because they live alone and do not have family members or friends nearby to assist them.
Program volunteers respond to requests for services by providing comfort and companionship at the time of crisis and maintaining contact to ensure members are safe and able to carry out the requirements of daily living.
Services provided under the program include:
- visit the member at their home, hospital, or nursing home
- alerting the members’ family or friends of an update
- transportation to professional appointments, doctor’s offices, etc. within Flagler County
- transportation to church, grocery stores, and other facilities as needed.
Services of the program begin with a request from a member, customarily through the clergy or the church office. A request form can be downloaded from the link below. Contact the church office at 386-446-2300 for additional information.
The Assistance Ministry and its affiliated programs offer voluntary, basic services as noted above. They do not provide professional services, endorsements of professional organizations, or services relating to such organizations.
