DivorceCare:
Divorce is a life-changing event - you don’t have to go through it alone. Learn how to cope with the pain of divorce and acquire tools to rebuild your future. With weekly biblical teaching and encouragement, individuals gain insight into dealing with issues such as anger, depression, loneliness, finances, and children’s needs, along with several others. The 13-week session will begin October 5th - you are welcome to join at any point in the session. The group will meet on Monday nights at 7 p.m., under the leadership of Rev. Mi Hyeon Lee-Pattison. Come and find help, discover hope, and experience healing.
GriefShare™:
Grief can come about from many life experiences: the loss of a loved one, the termination of employment, or the loss of a home, to name a few. Come together with others who understand what you are feeling. Each session of the Grief Recovery Support Group will feature biblical teaching, encouragement, and information to help people successfully travel the road from mourning to joy.

Helping Hands
A group of people who have volunteered their time and talents to help those who can’t get things done on their own, or can’t pay for someone to do a job. Some of the jobs they have done are: painting either inside or out, cleaning rain gutters, washing windows, moving furniture, and many more. We encourage our congregation to call if they are in need. Our Helping Hands coordinator will then look at the job. If it’s one they can do, a group is called, and a time set to do it. The recipients pay only for materials needed. The volunteers receive no pay, except God’s blessings for helping one of His people.
