We are partnering with Sanctuary Mental Health Ministries to offer an 8 week small group course starting on February 6, 2022, and running for 8 weeks.

We’ll be meeting on Sundays after the service (around 11:15) for 1.5 hours. Lunch will be provided.

What is The Sanctuary Course?
– An opportunity to discuss, learn and engage in topics of mental health from a Psychological, Social and Theological perspective.
– A time of reflecting on principles and processes of recovery and the importance and role of community support.
– An opportunity to talk about scars (not fresh wounds) and brokenness of life and our hope in Jesus.

What it is not?
– Sanctuary is not Group Therapy to deal with open wounds. (Professional help may be a better fit).

What’s the format? Lunch will be included during the video portion.
– Scripture reading
– Education on mental health topics (Psychological and Social perspective)
– Video (around 10 minutes long) of personal mental health journey’s and discussion from Pastors and Mental Health professionals
– Discussion questions
– Theological Perspective on Mental Health Topics
– Exercise/Reflections to put into action what has been learned
– Prayer

All are invited to explore Christian engagement in the mental health conversation, please sign up to join this 8 week course. Sign up here: https://hcc-ca.churchcenter.com/registrations/events/1142008
