We were able to set up for Trunk-or-Treat (Table-or-Treat due to rain), at Church tonight. Great way to spread sugary treats and get the word out to the community that we are also here to help.

God really does great things!

What an awesome day this is! This is how God loves to brings things back in full circle. This is Trina Frierson, CEO of Mending Hearts Inc. Back about 20 years ago or so, I was her Correctional Counselor when she was (I jokingly say we) were serving time in jail. We both now are helping those overcome their life controlling issues. God molds us, grows us, then uses us!

If you work with kids or teens in any way, you can benefit from the Mental Health First Aid training that TN Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services is doing at church Aug. 2nd.
Learning how to spot issues (anxiety, depression as well as other mental health conserns) and how to help kids and teens is a vital part in helping to prevent further issues later in life. You can learn how to help someone now so that we may prevent the need for major help in the future.
We focused on teachers and youth ministry leaders but ANYONE is welcome to attend. A bigger description is on the sign up page at www.109.church/signups

Space is limited to 16 people so please hurry to secure your spot!

Yesterday we finished up training two new facilitators for Recovery-Through Christ. They hope to increase the opportunity for help in the Athens, Alabama area. We are very thankful for these guys and their willingness to further this ministry.
They also received training in QPR (Su***de Prevention) during their training.
Center Chapel Church of Christ also sent two for re-certification on Saturday. We want to also thank them for their efforts to provide faith-based recovery in their community.

Recovery - Through Christ is hosting an adult training class this Saturday May 24th from 9:00 am until noon. It will be at 109 Church of Christ 3320 Hwy 109 N Lebanon TN. The class is a deep, intensive class over Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) Building Strong Brains: A 3-hour evidence-based training that aids in building a knowledge around early childhood brain development. The training helps individuals see how ACEs negatively impact the architecture of the developing brain but how a safe, stable, and nurturing environment can help a child to thrive. This training aids in building a knowledge mobilization movement around early childhood brain development. This knowledge mobilization means developing a common understanding about early childhood through a shared, up-to-date, clear storyline based on science, including the following:
• The architecture of a young child’s brain is shaped by the interaction between genes and experiences, and this can have either a positive or negative result.
• Science makes it clear that Adverse Childhood Experiences negatively impact the architecture of the developing brain.
• Children thrive in a safe, stable, nurturing environment of supportive families, caregivers, neighborhoods, and communities.

What a super long day and a half of Facilitator training in order to squeeze Sunday’s lessons into today! We are very glad to announce the newest Recovery-Through Christ facilitators. This is Charles and Anna Harris from Cartersville Church of Christ in Georgia. They hope to get their RTC ministry kicked off real soon. We now will have active RTC ministries in Michigan, Indiana, Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama, and the Concordia Parrish Correctional Facility in Louisiana.
