Called to Comfort Class
We have been called by God to comfort others as He has comforted us.
In the Called to Comfort Adult Christian Education Class we learn to comfort, support, and be present to individuals who have experienced loss through use of Scripture, teaching, discussion, videos, books and more. This session is held every Sunday of the month at 12:30pm, except on the first Sunday.
