In Courage

Thursdays at 7-9pm in the FPCH Library and Middle Terrace

In Courage is a Christ-centered support group for all who struggle from past trauma, poor habits, depression, anger, anxiety, fear, and addiction. Alone we are powerless to change our lives and need Jesus to be the center of the restoration process. In Courage is a secure and confidential safe space. Through prayer and guided by biblical principles we begin this journey of restoration and healing.

In Hope – In Trust – In Prayer – Inspired – In Him – In Courage

 

“Therefore, confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so you may be healed.”
