“Oh, I get so lonesome, I just crave someone to come and visit me.” ~ Esther, nursing home resident
Esther is not alone. Almost 2.5 million people are spending their last days in one of America’s senior care homes, and 75% of them receive less than one visit per month. These neighbors of ours are often very lonely. Certainly, there is a great need for Christians to become involved in their lives.
God Cares Ministry exists to help Christ-followers develop caring friendships with one or more residents of a senior care home. As your friendships grow in openness and trust, you can help your friends take Jesus’ hand, so that they may find life, hope and peace in Him.
We provide training, specialized ministry resources and coaching for you as you step forward in God’s love to minister to your lonely neighbors.
For your first step in getting involved, we recommend these two free resources:
Getting Started in
Nursing Home Ministry – Your First Steps booklet. This will give you a few basic, yet essential, principles for creating a welcomed presence within the care home community.
God Cares Ministry News newsletter. This will be your primary connection with the growing network of Christians who are serving in the nursing home mission field.
You can sign up for these two free resources through the form below.
We want to assure you that there are many, many people in our senior care homes who long for a caring friend to help them find life, hope and peace in Jesus. Our training books and videos, along with prayer, will poise you for a fruitful ministry.

All it takes is a willing heart.
May the Lord bless you as you step forward in faith and love for His elderly children!
Do not cast me away when I am old; do not forsake me when my strength is gone. ~ Psalm 71:9
