Cancer is a disease that no one would want to experience and yet it is a reality for many people. It is important to those who are currently confronted with a diagnosis and or treatment to know that you have a church that is available to journey with you to provide support, encouragement and prayer to name a few ways that we are available.

Please allow us to serve you. If you desire more information, please contact Pauline Walker, pauline.walker1486@gmail.com or Michelle Hall, michelle@christchurchsl.org, 281.980.6888.

Divorce Care is a well-thought-out series aimed at providing significant information and resources to navigate this serious disruption to your and perhaps your family’s life. Christ Church attempts to offer the program twice a year.  The class that was scheduled to begin September 19, 2022 had no participants; we will host a new session at the beginning of 2023.  In the interim, if you would like to learn more information or locate a class, you can go to the link,  Divorcecare.org. 

If it would be helpful to connect with someone, you can contact Pastor Michelle, michelleh@christchurchsl.org.

On Wednesday, April 26, we will begin an eight-week grief support group facilitated by Jim Dawson who is certified by the American Academy of Grief Counseling. The program is a cognitive approach whereby commonality of experiences leads to a time of discussion. The process used to examine is a theory like that of Elizabeth Kubler Ross’ Stage Theory. Our objective is to help members to develop coping skills for short-term relief, and to subsequently probe each issue to see what the group can do to best support one another.

Please contact Jim Dawson at jimidawson@gmail.com.

Christ Church pastors and lay ministers bring the love of Christ to church members and family who are hospitalized. If you would like to help, or if you know or someone who would appreciate a visit while in the hospital, please contact Michelle Hall.
