Stephen Ministry Update
The holidays are sometimes stressful in spite of it being a time for joy. For some it can be depressing, remembering families on the mainland or other parts of the world who are far away, or it might be that family relationships were especially painful during the holidays and remembering is not pleasant. All the other usual stressors can be present as well, which can create anxiety and sadness.
For more information please contact, Karen Cabral, 623-6663, Diana Toillion, 625-1875 or Pastor Gamley, 623-6663. We can direct you to a Stephen Minister who will be honored to be of help. All is confidential.
Blessings to you this time of year and all the year through. Gal. 6:2a "carry each other's burdens…"
