Frequently Asked Questions
Baptism is an inherently corporate event. Baptismal festivals welcome groups of people (adults and infants) into the Body of Christ at the same time. The appointed lectionary Bible lessons for these six festivals will naturally raise themes of baptismal (and thereby congregational) renewal. Groups of parents, sponsors, godparents and baptismal candidates will receive focused and faithful instruction from the pastor in preparation for the sacrament.
Please call the pastor in the church office (803) 765-9430 to arrange a pre-baptismal visit.
Pastoral counseling is an important part of our ministry at Ebenezer Lutheran Church. Often our pastor can assist with a referral to other counselors based on your specific need.
A note, telephone call or personal request will bring the pastor to your door at your time of need. Please inform the church office if you know of a member who is hospitalized or recently homebound.
At the time of a death, the family should notify the pastor IMMEDIATELY. Many times the pastor is called when death is expected to offer pastoral care for the whole family. Members are encouraged to use the sanctuary for funerals. It is in this familiar place that the promise of our resurrection faith is proclaimed every time we gather.
If you are interested in a particular project or committee, if you would like to become part of the various church groups, if you have some time to give but need ideas about what needs to be done, or desire to participate in the life of the congregations at any special point, please contact the church office. We will be very happy to help you find a meaningful volunteer ministry.
