Calling the Faith Based Community into Action

 

 

We are a mission field in your own backyard.  As such we feel compelled to equip you to meet the needs of your congregation when it comes to family violence.  Domestic violence touches 1 in 4 people, that means 1 in 4 sitting in your church pews is a survivor, a victim or knows someone touched by domestic violence.

As we continue to impact and transform lives, we long to partner with you in equipping those in the midst of this horrendous situation.  We know that God’s heart is broken when a woman is beaten or a child goes to bed afraid to go to sleep.

We are calling the church and faith community is to bind the wounds of the broken-hearted and ministry to the least of these.  We are called to rise up like the “watchman” in Ezekiel chapter 33 and take immediate action against domestic violence!

This workshop is designed for all clergy, pastoral staff, youth and children’s workers, home fellowship/life group leaders, lay leaders, school teachers and counselors.
