Mental Health Ministry Midweek - Sacred Spaces
On April 2nd, Wednesday at 7:30pm we will have Zoom Midweek hosted by the Mental Health Ministry. Please see details below:
The goal of the Sacred Space meetings is to create a safe space for individuals affected by mental health challenges (whether directly or indirectly) so they can find community and support. It offers a welcoming environment for sharing experiences, fostering understanding, and promoting mental wellness through education and practice. This is an exciting opportunity for any member of our church family to learn and practice meaningful communication skills such as active listening and grow in our ability to accompany one another on our spiritual journeys.
