The goal of the Care Shepherd Program is to show Christian love and caring to those of our church family who are in need by arranging meals, visiting, writing notes and cards, making phone calls, or providing other services that may be needed. Our main objectives are to welcome new members into the church; to show love, concern, and support for our members who are hospitalized or in special care facilities; to address the needs of any member who is ill, injured, or has suffered the death of a family member; and to aid and comfort members in any other situations that may occur where special care is needed.

The Angel Tree is a mission outreach for children at Christmas.  We work with either the Angel Tree ministry or Grandfather Home to obtain gift requests for children.  From a Christmas Tree set up in the church, members of the congregation select paper "ornaments" with gift requests, purchase the gifts and return them to CHPC to be delivered.

The Women's Ministry Team is responsible for organizing special activities for all women of the church such as dinner trips to Barter Theatre, women's conferences at Milligan College, Presbytery Camp, and the Christmas Sparkle in December.  Their mission work includes furnishing supplies and a brunch for the Hope Haven Women's Shelter. 

Scheduled for 2008 is the "Extraordinary Women's Conference" at Freedom Hall in Johnson City May 2 and 3.  Other ideas are in the works and will be announced.
