A BIBLICAL RESPONSE TO DOMESTIC ABUSE
Provided by American Baptist Churches of New York State
November 2, 2024 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
Online & In Person
Most of us know someone who has been or is currently suffering domestic abuse. We may not know it, but we do.
Our churches are to be safe places for hurting people. We as followers of Jesus are to be a healing empowering presence in the lives of wounded and mistreated people.
We cannot, however, fulfill those mandates unless we understand the dynamics and signs of domestic abuse and know what trauma-informed therapy is. Few of us are qualified to provide this specialized therapeutic care. We can, however, guide people to the kind of care they need.
Charlene Quint will lead our Region in a training on how we can be a ministering presence in the lives of hurting people.
The training will be both online and on Zoom on Saturday, November 2, 2024, from 8:30 AM to 12:30 PM. In-person participants will gather at the Eastwood Baptist Church in Syracuse. Online participants can join via ZOOM.
REGISTRATION INFORMATION FOLLOWS BELOW.
