Hope With Skin On
This group will explore the various contributory factors that a can lead to suicidality and engages the question of what it might mean for the church to be 'hope with skin on' for those facing suicidal desperation. A mixture of coaching, colleague support and education, this follow-up opportunity is for those who have 'graduated' from Soul Shop and are still hungry for more.
We are thrilled to invite key members of the church to embark on this transformative journey of creating a truly inclusive and supportive community. Our goal is simple but profound: to explore how the church can better nurture a space where loneliness is dispelled and hope flourishes for everyone.
