Where or who can I turn to?
Life for all of us at times can be really hard. We all face difficult issues, including: relationship struggles, marriage difficulties, work issues, financial concerns, struggles to overcome areas of our lives that we are embarrassed about, loneliness, anxieties, loss of people we love, doubts and struggles with our faith, the list goes on and on. All of us at times need help to process these hard times.
We want to help; you don’t have to carry this alone!
It is both hard and humbling to ask for help. Most of us find this tough and often we leave it until our situation is really serious.
We have people who you can talk to.
We have a team of people who can get alongside you…. in a non judgmental way… to care, and help you discover God’s help and a way forward. These people are experienced, and if they cannot help they will seek to refer you on to someone who can.
Struggling with Sickness.
Sickness can hit any one of us. Sometimes it can be devastating. Jesus gave his followers authority to heal the sick in his name. While not all sicknesses are cured, James, one of the early writers of the Bible in his book says that when we are sick we are to call the church Elders (Leaders) and ask them to pray for us.
Caught in a financial bind!
Unexpected circumstances or sudden bills can cause real anxiety. As a church we operate both a Care Fund set up to respond to needs within our community and a small Food Bank to meet practical needs. We know it can be embarrassing to ask, but please these supports are there to help all of us when we need it.
