Our Goal / Mission is two-fold:
Facilitate GOD connection for people individually, in couples, and in groups
Train people to facilitate GOD connections with people individually.
Life Church provides this ministry at no charge to people in our church and in our community.
We are on staff one day a week. We schedule appointments on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday daytime and evening. We see people by appointment and are glad for you to give our phone number to anyone you want to refer for ministry. If you would send us a text or email to alert us about the referral that would be helpful. We do work with children but only after we work with the parents.

The ministries that we offer are Immanuel Prayer Ministry, Immanuel Lifestyle Ministry, and Sozo Ministry. We also provide pre-marital ministry and marriage ministry. We use Prepare/Enrich and couple checkups and are now adding SYMBIS ministry for couples.
Plans for the next 12 months:
We plan tentatively to provide a Marriage Mentoring Training Life Group in the Fall and Winter. We will send more information. Please think of couples that you would recommend.
We plan to offer 3-hour Seminars at 5 convenient times this year for both campuses. See the attached Information about this Seminar.
We plan to train new people to facilitate Immanuel's Prayer for individuals. Beginning in the Fall we will schedule a training course. We were interrupted at the Hurley campus by the events of 2020.
We will continue the weekly scheduled appointments as described above.
We use many tools to accomplish a GOD connection for people. Click below for the attached Breathe a Prayer, instructions for an ancient Christian spiritual discipline that helps calm and prevent anxiety. Most people are anxious when they get to our office and we teach this discipline to help quiet so we can more easily connect with GOD. We cannot do ministry with people unless we have an awareness of connection with GOD. Shalom!
