The Journey – Oct 26

The monthly Journey workshop is Sunday, October 26 at 6:30pm in room 303. Pastor Nathan Elgersma and Janessa Gritter will lead this workshop called “Mental Health in the Church.”  How do we understand mental health? What is the relationship between mental health and spirituality? What does healing look like in a communal church context? We invite you to this month’s workshop to wrestle with these questions together. These Journey workshops will happen once a month and feature a variety of different topics.

Upcoming Journey Sessions:

  • November 23: Peace & Reconciliation
  • January 25: Genesis Overview
