The Master’s Touch is a visitation service ministry provided by the Women’s Missionary Society of the Eighth Episcopal District.

This ministry offers prayerful support and compassionate care to those who are elderly, ill, or otherwise unable to fully participate in the life of the church. This includes individuals who are confined to their homes, hospitalized, residing in nursing homes, or incarcerated. Through presence and connection, we seek to remind them that they remain a cherished and vital part of our faith community, while preserving their dignity in their present state.
