Pastor on Call
One of our pastors is on call every day, 24 hours a day. The Pastor of the Day can be reached during normal office hours by calling the Church at 235-0496 and asking for the Pastor of the Day. After hours contact can be made by calling the Church main number, 235-0496, and then pressing "2" for Pastor of the Day information.

Pastoral Calling Team
The Pastoral Callers Ministry exists to enlarge and extend the pastoral heart throughout the congregation of FPC. Pastoral callers are both trained and gifted with nurturing hearts and compassionate temperaments. They visit those members of our congregation who have suffered a death or other loss, those who are alone and lonely, those who are ill and homebound or have been discharged from the hospital, and also those who face a traumatic situation. Pastoral Callers serve and report directly to our pastors, alerting them to situations which need deeper or expanded care.

The team meets twice monthly with Pastor George Moore to be equipped for service, to pray for those members who receive calls or visits, and to encourage one another. The team includes: Andy Anderson, Charlotte Chandler, Ann Crider, Ann DeCarlo, Bruce Evashevski, Kate Hellier, Tom Lide, Carol Loyless, Debbie Martin, Buddy May, Pat May, BJ Pate, Frances Privette, Joann Reed, Thom Robelot, Emilie Simpson, Edward Stall, Stella Stall, Kim Taylor, Jackie Thompson, Wanda Todd, and David Webster.

If you feel that God is calling you to be a part of this ministry, contact Pastor Moore at 672-1755 or Ann DeCarlo at 834-5756 or 905-5198 (cell).

Prayer Ministry
We believe in the power of prayer here at First Presbyterian Church! We have a committed group of individuals willing to intercede in prayer for you and your family. We have individuals who will pray with you in person after each worship service in the Light Court by the Sanctuary. We have a weekly bulletin insert of focused prayer concerns, "The Family Prayer Page." We ask the congregation to remove this insert and take it home with them and pray throughout the week for the individuals and their specific prayer needs. We have a Congregational Intercessory Prayer Team who will pray confidentially for your specific prayer needs.

To notify us of any specific prayer needs or to be added to the weekly bulletin prayer insert, please contact the Congregational Care office by calling 235-0496, ext. 243, emailing us at prayer@firstpresgreenville.org. For more information about the Prayer Ministry, please visit our Prayer Ministry page.

Visitation Ministry
Our Pastors are scheduled to visit the hospitals every day and the nursing homes every week. Shut-ins are visited quarterly with communion. If you are scheduled to go in the hospital, nursing home, or you can't get to church and are shut-in, please contact the church and let us know so we can provide ongoing pastoral care.

Counseling Ministry
Pastors are generally available for short term counseling on an individual basis by contacting the Pastors individually.
