Bear Ministry

The Bear Ministry brings smiles and comfort to every chid who receives one. The "Bear" ladies, as they are lovingly called, are a group that meets weekly to cut, sew, and stuff small bears. The 10" stuffed bears have hand painted faces, a color coordinated ribbon around its neck, and a tag sewn on their back with the church name and phone number. These bears bring comfort to children, even being allowed to go into x-ray with a frightened child. These bears are distributed to local hospitals, out-patient surgery centers, the Child Advocacy Center, and the Penelope House.
