This is a ministry of support and encouragement that enables individuals to deal with loss, from a Christ-centered perspective. This ministry is geared to provide strength to those who are already Christians, and also to those who have yet to develop a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Each meeting includes a 45-minute video presentation, followed by small-group discussion, where individuals can integrate the video teachings with their lives and receive necessary support from others who are also suffering loss.
Vision
Our goal is to be a resource center for the Southtowns community, and for other churches that wish to establish ministries for helping grieving people.
Schedule
Monday evenings in the Fall, Winter and Spring, from 7:00 p.m. - 9: 00 p.m. (13-week session)
Opportunities
We are seeking facilitators who have a gift for listening to others, and who have Spiritual Gifts of Mercy and Encouragement. Those who possess a passion for comforting people in time of loss, or who have dealt with personal loss themselves, are especially effective.
