Pastoral Care

The purpose of the East Bay Church Pastoral Care ministry is to Spiritually assist our community in knowing the Truth when faced with a life-changing event.

We visit those in the hospital or who may be home bound.  Through Spiritual Mind Treatment, we assist individuals in mentally releasing identification with any medical diagnosis including chronic illness, sudden diagnosis and genetic disorders.  This is in addition to, not in lieu of medical treatment.

We offer comfort and Spiritual assistance to families before, during, and after the transition of a loved one. We are available to assist with planning and officiating memorials and/or funerals.  We are available to listen, talk, pray and send expressions of love and support.

We also give voice to life's joyous occasions. Allow us to share with the community the arrival of newborns, marriages and unions, scholastic achievements and other joyfilled occasions! Why, we'll even dance at your one hundred-and-eleventh birthday party!

In short, whatever life brings, the Pastoral Care ministry is here to embrace and support members and friends of the East Bay Church of Religious Science.
