In the TouchPoint service group, we will touch people’s lives at their point of need.
Our mission is to:
- Provide special care to our congregants who are experiencing times of bereavement or serious sickness
- Provide a means to share in the celebration of life’s key milestone events
TouchPoint Scriptural Basis
Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn. Romans 12:15
1 There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:
2 a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3 a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
4 a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,
Ecclesiastes 3:1-5
