Suicide & the Church: Caring Conversations and Resources

Suicide & the Church:
Caring Conversations & Resources

Many are struggling in our age.  Mental illness, divorce, despair, social unrest, and a breakdown of relationships have left many feeling isolated and without hope. This Webinar will explore how the church can respond to these realities and the mental illness and suicide that often result.  It is intended for both professional church workers and lay leaders.  It will focus on practical steps and resources that will be helpful for “front lines” work in these arenas.
