God's love is expressed in our ministry to anyone who needs love and support.
HOSPITAL VISITING TEAM
Coordinator: Nancy Dickieson
A small team of volunteers is available to provide supportive visits to members who are hospitalized at the Guelph General Hospital.
Our visitors will pass along any special needs or requests to the Interim Moderator, Rev. Glen Soderholm, or the Interim Minister, the Rev. Cathy Stewart, or the prayer chain. You do not have to face a hospitalization alone -- your Knox family cares about you.
Please call the church office when you are aware of a family member or friend that has been admitted or will be admitted to the hospital so we can arrange a visit.
Phone: Knox office 519-821-0141
