This ministry is dedicated to serving parishioners who are in "sorrow, need or sickness" or those who are homebound or would just like a friendly visit. Volunteers are guided by our priest and feel that giving of ourselves and of our time costs little and so enriches each of us.

An important part of this ministry is delivering tapes of Parish services to shut-ins. Please call the Parish office if you or someone that you know would enjoy receiving these tapes. We also have tape players available, if needed.

Some members of the Lay Visitation Ministry Committee have been licensed and trained as Lay Eucharistic Ministers. They take communion to our shut-ins. The reserve Sacrament has been consecrated during a service at Christ Church and becomes an extension of our worship for people who can't get to church. 

There is a tremendous need for this ministry in our Parish right now. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact the Parish Office at (804) 725-2175 or via email here. There is some training involved.
