Support Groups & Workshop
by John
Parkey, Discipleship Minister
“Okolona
Christian Church will launch three Support/Recovery Groups during
the first week of February, and also hold a Support Workshop!”
It's
no secret that we live in a hurting and broken world and, in one
way or another, we're all hurting and broken people. Sometimes
our hurt and brokenness becomes too much for us to handle alone,
and we need help. We need someone, or a group of people, who will
walk along beside us, encourage us, confront us, and pray for
us. We need someone who understands and will move us toward freedom
from our trial and trouble.
As
a church, we desire to do that. In February, we are starting a
Support Group and two Recovery Groups in hopes of helping people
move toward freedom. We are also offering a workshop in February.
All of these opportunities are designed so that we can walk with
you through your time of trial or trouble. Here's the information
on our new groups and the workshop:

Whatever
you're facing today, there are people at Okolona who will walk
it out with you. People who will help you…
-
learn to lean on one another and to trust
God to carry you through.
- let
go of the past, and of shame, bitterness, and destructive
relationships.
- move
forward into a new way to live, together.
We hope you will take advantage of the
help we desire to give, if you need it.
