Care and support

Hibernia offers a wide range of ministries dedicated to providing care, encouragement, and support for both our members and visitors. These ministries are designed to meet people where they are, offering compassion, guidance, and a sense of community. Below is a list of some of the support ministries available to you.
Join us for Grief Share, a 13-week, Christ-centered support group for anyone who has lost a spouse, child, family member, or friend. Each weekly session includes a video featuring insights from grief recovery experts, pastors, and counselors, along with real-life stories from people who have experienced loss.

Together, we’ll explore topics such as comfort, hope, and healing through faith. Participants will also have the opportunity to share in group discussions and engage with a daily Bible devotional designed to support them on their personal journey through grief.

We’ll meet on Tuesday nights in Ed 4 at 6 PM.
Contact Betty Ost at (904) 612-8225 or Rhodi Scott at (904) 716-3266 for more information.
Celebrate Recovery is a Christ-centered 12-step program for those dealing with any sort of hurt, habit, or hang-up. This can include struggles with relationships, anger, food, sex, porn, drugs, alcohol, finances, gambling, self-injury, family dysfunction, the effects of past abuse, and more.
Each meeting consists of a large group meeting with worship and a lesson or a testimony, and then we break into gender-specific small groups to share. We maintain a safe environment by adhering to strict anonymity.
 
We meet in Worship Center 1 on Tuesday nights at 6 PM.  

Contact Bill Sims at (904) 403-6158 for more information.
